ABOUT ME

Friendly, caring, fun, smart, functional introvert. I'm backpacking around Europe this summer with my best friend (Caitlan, in my profile photo), and we are both looking forward to seeing amazing cities and meeting great people. I'm very laid-back and easy to get along with. I would love to start hosting people back in the U.S. once I return from my trip!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to try couchsurfing to meet awesome people within the community who have a passion for meeting others and learning what it's like in other parts of the world.

Interests

I love live music, exercising, being outdoors, playing basketball, reading a good book, meeting and talking to interesting people, learning/experiencing new cultures, trying food from all over the world

Music, Movies, and Books

I love almost every type of music (death metal the least) -- I've been to numerous concerts, ranging from mainstream performers to Bonnaroo twice, to smaller/local bands around Nashville. A good drama film will always make me tear up, but I love indie films, comedy, horror, and rom-coms, as well. My favorite author is Chuck Palahniuk, and favorite book is Invisible Monsters (by him), but lately I've been reading much more non-fiction (memoirs/autobiographies/humor).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This trip around Europe will be one of the best experiences I've had -- traveling is my favorite pastime
