Hi there!

My name is Emily, and I'm an irreverent, fun lover of the outdoors. I'm a bit of a bohemian, and I love to travel, hike, and dance. College educated, has a steady job and a boyfriend back in Los Angeles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In 2020, I'm embarking on a huge trip to all 61 US National Parks and writing about it for Outside Magazine. I'm self-funding the travel portion of the journey, and I'd love to meet new people and grab a shower and/or some wifi along the way! I'll be traveling in my mini van, so if you don't have a spare bed, no worries! I just need a parking spot. :)
