Hello, my name is Taylor Hayes. I am always happy to meet people. I am a returned peace corps volunteer. I will be traveling back to my home, the US, over the next month.

I will visit Egypt, Turkey, Greece, and the UK. I had never left America before visiting Guinea, so this will all be so new for me. I am excited and nervous.

I have also never stayed with a couchsurfer before, so that's a cool experience I am looking forward to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see if I can meet new people who can teach me.
