CURRENT MISSION

I guess I would say that my current mission is to explore Europe and experience as much of the culture as I possibly can.

ABOUT ME

I am currently a student studying Criminology abroad at the University of Worcester in England. I am studying here for the entire year (2011-2012) and am loving every moment of it. When I return back to Minnesota, I will go back to the University of Minnesota - Duluth to finish my last two classes of my degree before graduating.

I love to live life, travel, and learn new things. The experiences that I have had while abroad are amazing experiences that I will never forget and will always be thankful to have been able to do.

PHILOSOPHY

I live life to make a change and do new things. I want to learn as much as I can and encourage others to be the best that they can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am looking to surf, meet up for coffee if we are in the same area, and even show people around Worcester.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I have had very little experience with CouchSurfing, but I have heard many exciting things about it! A few of my close friends have used CouchSurfing before and have had great experiences. I would love to meet new people from different countries, have coffee, and learn as much as I can. Getting to know people from all places is something that I highly enjoy.

Interests

Traveling, learning new things, exploring sights, hanging out with friends and meeting new people! I love trying anything once and doing new things. On a normal day, I go to my lectures, volunteer, work, go to the gym, and see friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is indie/alternative, but I am open to anything. Some of my current favorites would be Adele, Mumford and Sons, The Shins, Corrine Bailey Rae, The Fray, The Beatles, and James Morrison. Check out my last.fm: here!I love to read, but currently have not been reading as much as I would like to be. My favorite author is by far Jodi Picoult. Going to the cinema is something that I love. I love seeing new films and watching anything from action to romance!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So far, one of the most amazing things that I have done would be when I was in Malta. I got the rare chance to go aboard a true British Royal Navy Ship!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're really bad at cooking, I can teach you some pretty decent and easy recipes.

I like to learn about all sorts of things! In Dublin, our host taught us a bit about the raw/vegan diet which was really interesting.

And share... hmm... I can share a lot about the states if you have never been. I can also tell you about my travels since I have been here, and hopefully you will too.
