About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn and love

ABOUT ME

Just a girl making her way through this crazy life, staying open to whatever life has to show me.

PHILOSOPHY

Do everything from the heart (easy to say but hard to do).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the concept of freely sharing experiences and culture. I've met some really open and inspiring people through couch surfing and I look forward to meeting more!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had some great couch surfing experiences and I hope to be able to host people when I'm back in Madison... I'm sorry for the low response rate! only one person has ever requested my couch (2 years ago) and I didn't even see the message until recently! Don't be scared away! ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

film: Before Sunset, The Godfather Series, The Prestige, The Matrix, Cinema Paradiso...there are too many...

music: Punch Brothers, Ray Charles, Pearl and the Beard, Jose Gonzalez, Emile Sande, Nina Simone, Kristoff Krane...a little of everything, but I tend to like more mellow stuff.

books: The Good Soldier/Ford Madox Ford, Pride and Prejudice/Jane Austen, Vonnegut...I'm more of a live life person than a book person though...
