About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and make make unforgettable memories and friends while doing it

ABOUT ME

I would consider myself a positive person- I’m pretty outgoing and spontaneous. I love meeting new people and experiencing new things. I am accepting of everyone and anything but have little tolerance for rude/small-minded people. I’m new to couch surfing but can promise that I’m very respectful of people and their space (I won’t trash your apartment/house). I’m also an open book so ask me any questions you have!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, all I can do is surf. My parents are currently my roommates and, unfortunately, they aren't as open-minded as I am when it comes to traveling and hosting new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is actually my first time using the website. I know it says I've been a member since 2012 but I never really made an effort to explore the website until just now. I heard about couchsurfing in passing back in college, made a profile at the time, but never did much with it. I'm mainly joining because I love traveling but my friends aren't always available to explore new places with me. I figured this would be a way for me to meet some great people and maybe find some lifelong travel partners.

Interests

I love to travel in my spare time (which is why I'm crashing at your place), be outdoors, see/experience new things, meet awesome new people. I've gotten into cycling in the last year and after a recent trip to colombia, have been trying to become fluent in spanish as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love all three- I'm always up for a concert!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finished my first triathlon this year! It was a short one, but it took several months for me to become a better swimmer and I'm proud of myself for it!

Teach, Learn, Share

Many of the moments that have left me awestruck were during my travels to other countries. It's amazing how people are able to interact and connect despite hurdles like language and culture. Everyone has something to teach you-you just have to be open to it!
