I am a compassionate person who is looking to travel and experience as much of the world as I can. I'm going into Social Work because people are my passion, I want to serve them the best I can going through life. I feel like the more people I meet the more comfortable I will be with myself and the world around me. I am currently enrolled in a school in North Carolina called Warren Wilson, which is one of the most liberal schools in the U.S. at the moment. I am from Pennsylvania originally but hope to live in various places around the world.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing in the hopes to meet interesting people around the world. I believe it's all about making connections in the world, and this seems like a good way to do so. It's also great to have a place that offers people free places to stay. I feel like many people are nervous of each other in the world today, and this helps strangers come together and get to now each other.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Grateful Dead, Rolling Stones, Edwarde Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Violet Femmes, Bright Eyes. Movies: Inception, Bringing up Baby, Moonrise Kingdom, Star Wars Books: Schrodinger's Cat Trilogy, Harry Potter, anything by Kurt Vonnegut, On the Road, Into the Wild, Wild
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I work on an organic farm at the University that I attend. Here I was able to start an Aquaponics project to help and increase sustainability and for learning purposes. It is a passion of mine, and a goal to continue this project until it's closed loop system. I know I'm kind of a geek about it.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I love having in-depth conversations about anything and everything. I also am a high energy person that loves to experience new things. I am also always willing to cook for my hosts. I've been told I'm not too bad at it even.
My Interests
I love camping, I try to go at least once a month, and will camp in any weather. I also am a bit of a geek, I love reading up on different schools of thought in various subjects. I also love to travel, as for why I'm on Couchsurfing =). I also play the bass and I am currently teaching myself the Ukulele. I also really enjoy good movies, great books, wine, beer, and cooking.
