I'm a 3rd year neuroscience student and I get really pumped up about research. I love spending as much time as possible outdoors and pursing activities that really push my limits. In the summers I love to hike out to swimming holes in the south eastern Appalachians a go out rafting on the Ocoee and Chattooga river. I'm hopefully going to be able to start rock climbing this year, and finally banish my fear of heights for good. I have a slightly irrational fear of elevators.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see new places and meet new people. For me, travel is just as much about meeting and experiencing new people as it is experiencing a new place.
