About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to bask in rich European culture; to learn about other countries and peoples, and then use that knowledge to better the world for someone else.

ABOUT ME

I love reading, learning, competing, and socializing. I am in my final year of studying to be an English teacher; just finished my final practice or practicum with a few weeks off to travel before returning to finish up my degree.

I'm a former PSU varsity athlete who has had success at every competitive level. I love to train, love to compete and coach. The travel bug recently hit me, and I look forward to traveling as much as I can over the next month.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know why I was born or what my purpose on Earth is, but I try to, when I can, make someone else's day a little bit better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to hear about your experiences traveling, working, etc... I believe more can be learned by human contact than buying a stiffly manufactured travel guide; I want to meet new people, so as to facilitate a more globally interconnected society.

None... Soon to have some though
