About Me

I'm a laid back female in her early twenties. I love to read, write, travel, and am passionate about politics, music, and trying new things.
I love tacos, espresso, and exploring. I think I was meant to be a mermaid.
I work in the service industry and go to school full time. I'm pursuing a self designed social justice degree that will combine political inequalities with social sciences with concentrations in music industry, art, and spanish.
I'm a barista at a luxury hotel cafe by day and a waitress at a music venue by night.
I help promote local music events and intern with non profits on the side as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing to meet new people and see new places!
I have heard amazing things about this site and the people on it.

Interests

I love photography and journaling about things. I am working on a blog as well as a zine series. I call myself a mermaid because I've always been drawn to water. I love trying new places to eat and seeing live music.
Cocktail of Choice: Jameson+Soda+Lime Juice
I enjoy dark beer and sunshine!
