About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going, fun-loving student from a small town in the Midwest of the United States. As for traveling, it is one of my favorite things (a few others include the moon, hummus and cheese). I absolutely love the freedom that comes along with having no plans and the knowledge gained by getting lost in a new place or meeting new people. Let's be pals!

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't look back, that's not where you're going" -Bathroom stall philosopher

"We are here on Earth to fart around. Don't let anybody tell you different" -Kurt Vonnegut

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently living in a house with my roommates. We are students at the University of Illinois. Willing to host if someone comes around Champaign-Urbana!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never Couchsurfed but have heard from multiple friends that it is the best way to see a city and meet the locals. Looking forward to testing the waters and become a part of the community.

Interests

I enjoy traveling, making new friends, reading a good book on a rainy day, riding and working on bicylces, learning, shredding the pow on a snowboard, sampling new foods and drinks, bicycling, ogling at the moon, watching basketball and hockey and playing waterpolo.
