About Me

my lifelong mission...

To discover who I am even as it changes from year to year

A little bit about me...

I love traveling and seeing new places. I've seen a majority of my own country (the US). I've roadtripped across Northern Canada and seen the tiny village of Tuktoyaktuk, which is situated on the Arctic ocean in the Northwest Territory. I have biked across a large section of Europe and seen some pretty interesting and bizarre stuff. I lived in South Korea and taught English for a year. I enjoy writing. I really love listening to people and hearing about their lives and experiences.

philosophy...

Sometimes you just have to stop trying to explain the unexplainable and just live. Life is beautiful and I believe there is more than meets the eye!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I'm sharing a house with my family that have graciously given me a place to live while I aggressively work my way out of student debt. Therefore, I am not able to host at the moment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only had good experiences couch surfing. I have couchsurfed in: Texas, Louisiana, Korea, Portugal, Spain, and Italy.

Interests

I love good coffee and also good tea! I am also interested in movies that are real to the human experience but are also encouraging and uplifting. I will always choose being in the wild outdoors to a busy shopping store. I love food and making food. Art museums can occupy me for hours! I love talking to people and hearing about their lives.
