I am an exchange student from the U.S. studying Civil Engineering at the University of Queensland for one semester. I don't have much experience traveling before this, but am looking to hopefully experience a lot of what Australia has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet new people and make new connections around the world while I am traveling. I am planning a weekend trip to Sydney from October 1st. I would like to stay with a local and hopefully be able to see the sights and get out in nature a bit too.

Interests

I love nature. Doing anything just to be outside: Hiking, walking, swimming, the beach, sports, stargazing, observing wildlife. I am somewhat new to photography but I have a nice camera and love to take pictures. I like hanging around in the city as well. I am also a huge fan of watching sports, and listening to live music.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have a specific kind of music, pretty much anything that's on the radio. I love sports books, Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit are my all time favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After never being out of North America, moving Down Under to the other side of the world :)
