I am 29 years old and from Columbus, OH. I have been married for over two year and we have a son. I am a very easy-going and laid back person who has no problem blending in. I like to have fun and live life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I like to experience new places with people who are already there and not be confined to a hotel or a tourist trap. Since I need to travel for my Masters and for my music, this is the best option.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a part of a month-long. Fulbright-Hays Group Study Abroad trip to South Africa in 2010. My research focus was media and the arts in Apartheid and how they affected democracy.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach- music, writing, cooking, tech stuff

Learn- information about life, workout tips

Share- I am literally an open book.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a lot about my life experiences, awesome cooking skills, general information (I'm a nerd and proud), advice, and anything else they need. I don't mind discussing difficult topics because I respect other's opinions and I am hard to offend.
