hey! I'm Sarah, a native Memphian who spent a few years braving the cold weather of Chicago.

I am an outdoorsy person and love exploring the world. I am learning a lot about myself and am saying yes to travel more and more as time goes on.

I work in social services and want to help people make the world a better place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and make friends throughout the world. I want to share experiences with lots of individuals and know this is a great place to find adventure! Relationships and community are highly important to me, so I'm constantly searching for new opportunities to find and form them/it.
