About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy Europe and meet interesting fellow travelers

ABOUT ME

I'm a very down to earth, quirky, and out-going person with a passion for learning and traveling. I love history, art, and studying other cultures. I'm especially fond of all things European, because I love the diversity found in such a small area! Above all things, I just like to enjoy life and live every moment to the fullest. My goal with CS is to stay with people who are knowledgeable about their city and don't mind giving good directions and a warm cozy place to sleep : )

PHILOSOPHY

Live every day like it could be your last, and cherish everything you have. Take nothing for granted, not even the simple pleasure of sipping wine on a beautiful day (or beer in my case)....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently traveling, but as soon as I have my own place I'd love to host fellow couchsurfers when I can!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a great experience couchsurfing in both Dublin and Cork, and I've met some really interesting people that way.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm obsessive over music, and I like anything ranging from Indie rock to classical, dance to some heavy metal..

Some of my favorite movies are Scent of a Woman, Shawshank Redemption, The English Patient, Fried Green Tomatoes, The Secretary, Ever After, Life is Beautiful, and Cold Mountain.
I'm also a sucker for Will Ferrill movies..

I don't have a favorite book because I like too many.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing Europe for the first time was nothing like anything I've ever experienced! Reading about all the history in books doesn't compare to being there..

Teach, Learn, Share

I should at this point, be able to share some pretty decent traveling tips considering I've managed to survive jumping all over Ireland and the UK for the past 7 months..

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Croatia, Czech Republic, England, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Scotland, Slovenia, United Kingdom, Wales

Countries I’ve Lived In
