About Me

Everybody always tells me youth is fleeting, so I've decided to believe them and travel while I can.

I'm a recent grad who loves chatting about anything and everything. I'm a bit of a gabber.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always been on the hosting end, so now I'm trying my hand at traveling by backpack throughout Europe for a little over two months. I love the idea of talking to people who live in a city to supplement the touristy stuff.

Interests

Puns, cats, board games. They make for a complete life.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Lion in Winter is bar none my favorite movie of all time. Network and Cabaret are tied for second.

For TV, I think The Americans is the best thing on TV right now - but I'm generally a TV junkie.

I have a mild reading disorder, so I'm not much of a reader. Audiobooks have helped a lot with that though. The Portable Dorothy Parker always gives me a chuckle though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm sure lots of people feel this way, but being close to my friends and family amazes me everyday. I know it is generic, but being a good friend is what I'm most proud of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach people some of the basics of juggling or the rules of a great board game. I also could give a little advice of how to approach Worcester.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sometimes I forget the joys of being a tourist in my own town; so when I travel, I'd be happy tour accompany my hosts if they have that one thing they always meant to see but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Countries I’ve Lived In

United States
