Lifelong resident of Tennessee, but hoping to change that in the future with hopefully full-time travel. Right now, I take one or two big trips a year. After buying a house and not decorating it for two years and spending my money on travelling instead, I'm thinking I need to focus my energy in a new direction.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly for the community, to meet people in or from different areas. I house sit a lot, so maybe looking into couch surfing to fill in the gap between long-term stays.

Interests

Travel, natch! Also music, books, movies, TV, photography, art. I sing in a opera chorus and love art museums and history. I love learning and filling my brain with new places and things, but novelty isn't my big turn on. Mainly it's expanding my horizons of knowledge about the world. There is so much to see!
