I'm a happy gal who has an optimistic view on life. Meeting new people and experiencing new things excite me. I cope with humor, laughter is the best medicine right? My everyday life consists of ritually drinking my morning cup of coffee and going in to work as a designer at a silly sock company. I love design; art has always been a huge part of my life. When I'm not working, you can find me hiking a new trail or going out with friends for good company, good conversation & drinks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I chose to check out couch surfing because I thought it would be the best way to truly experience another culture & connect with the people living there.
