CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world as I possibly can.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and meet new people. I backpacked across Europe two years ago and it was the greatest experience of my life. Now I just want travel everywhere and see everything. I feel like the more I travel and the more people I meet, the more I grow as a person. I come from a large family that are as loving as they are loud. They make the holidays a lot of fun. I currently live by myself in a tiny apartment with my two big dogs. Pretty soon they will have me perfectly trained. I try to take them with me as much as I can but unfortunately they are too big to fit under the seat of a plane and too poorly trained to pass for service dogs. But what they lack in obedience they make up for in love.

PHILOSOPHY

Give more than you take.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have yet to couch surf but I am eager to try it out. I met a couple who couch surfed all over the world and they had nothing but great experiences. Some weird, but still great.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hopefully soon

Interests

Any activity that is done outdoors. I love to be outside, whether its running, hiking, or just walking my dogs. I try to read as much as I can which right now is a lot. My favorite activity is any one I can do with my dogs. It makes it that much better for me if they are there enjoying it too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I competed in a 24 hour race that pushed me to my physical and mental limits. In those 24 hours I went from the highest high to the lowest low and every emotion in between. It was the most challenging thing I have ever done and I can't wait to do it again.
