CURRENT MISSION

Going on an atypical European adventure!

ABOUT ME

Graduated from the University of Michigan in December 2011, now I'm looking to travel around Europe a little Jan-April. I'll be around France, Holland, then visiting cities such as Berlin, Copenhagen, Prague, Barcelona--all over! When I get back, I look forward to using my degree in Environmental Sciences in some type of employment, maybe in the Western US. Eventually, since my background is also in urban planning, I'd like to go to graduate school in Landscape Architecture.

I like parks and food (trying EVERYTHING), friendly with animals. I ike dancing and staying out late, but also being cozy and drinking coffee in knits.

PHILOSOPHY

Sunshine. Being nice.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in Wyoming summer of 2010, I celebrated my 20th birthday on top of a mountain. After what seemed like the hardest climb of the summer, my classmates and I sat and ate our packed sandwiches on a patch of grass. My professor passed me a cliff bar with a candle lit on top as a "flock" of butterflies flew past. We watched as a fire blazed through the forest below.
