Hello! I am currently an Au Pair in Paris, France. I enjoy traveling alone and I love the people I meet along the way. Prior to moving to Europe, I spent 6 years in Seattle, WA and hope to one day have an apartment or house of my own to host other couch surfers!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Working my way through Europe alone and it's scary as heck to put myself out there sometimes! I would rather stay on a new friends couch than out on the streets! I honestly love meeting people and hearing their stories. Solo travel has been such an exhilarating thing to learn and I hope that I can encourage more people to step out of their comfort zones and be alone!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Washed a paralyzed man's feet in South Africa. If we ever meet someday, ask me about this story. It was one of the most powerful moments of my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I was a biology minor in college and I know more about plants and animals than I know what to do with
Learn: Others stories and what makes them "them"
Share: More love. always more love

What I Can Share with Hosts

A friendly spirit and I can cook you an amazing meal! I also try and follow the old boy scout rule "Always leave the campground cleaner than you found it." I think this moto applies to more things than just campgrounds. Strive to leave every person, every place, and everything better than you found it.
