About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to travel everywhere...literally. Unfortunately I'm a student and short on money so it would take a minor miracle for that to happen!

ABOUT ME

This profile was set up as part of an online journalism class I have at UT - who knows what will come from it?!

PHILOSOPHY

Try as many things as possible, go as many places as your life permits. It's the only way to really learn and make your life worthwhile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to travel and host through the CS project - if there's any way I can help out, let me know. Whether that mean hosting for a few nights or showing you around Knoxville or Atlanta, I'll do what I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None at least yet!

Interests

Sports - especially American football, baseball and soccer
Writing - about anything and everything
Music - mainly acoustic rock, folk and blues
Photography - a little bit of everything, but nature is my favorite
