Overview
About Me
Hello! I am a 23 year old recently graduated college student, who loves traveling and exploring. I love cycling, riding horses, reading books, working out, cooking and learning new things. Travel is my absolute passion and I feel like meeting new people is the best way to form connections and make lasting memories. I have made many friends on my travels and still keep in touch with many of them so I hope I can make a friend in you!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am couch surfing so I can really be engaged in the culture and experience of being a traveler and not a tourist. I am hoping that the host will be able to give insight on the country in which I am staying and be able to provide tips on neat activities to do in the area!

Music, Movies, and Books
My favorite music is anything besides heavy metal. I especially enjoy soft and classic rock with a hint of blue grass country. My favorite movies are titanic and LOTR, everything disney (especially Mary Poppins) and Mrs. Doubtfire. My favorite books are Gone with the Wind, Harry Potter Series, Anything Jodi Picoult and Memoirs of a Geisha.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I think the most amazing thing I have done while traveling is cage diving with great white sharks in South Africa. It was neat to learn about the sharks habitual areas of habitation and to be able to see them up close.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach people to cook and to make origami cranes. I am also good at teaching dogs how to sit and lay down.
