About Me

I am brand new to couch surfing.

I'm an American who quit my successful job working in aviation in the US to move to Europe to get my Masters and change my life completely!

I love travel, soccer/football, and having a drink in the sunshine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For my Master's I did my first year at KTH in Stockholm and I will be moving to Turin, Italy for my second year. Unfortunately, the student accommodation ends on July 31st and I have an internship (part-time) till the end of August.

Hoping to make more (read: a 3rd) Swedish friend and get some local insight into the city I've been living in, but too busy to enjoy these past few months!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like American Classic Rock the best, but really enjoy everything except American Country music and jazz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Zip lining through the Costa Rican rain forest. Attending Oktoberfest which is the best thing ever, btw.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn more about Stockholm.

Good laughs, a few beers, witty banter, and I can cook from time to time- I make a few things really well, the rest is not so impressive :)
