About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to learn, write about my travels and see the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm a very sweet, clean, and gracious student looking to travel and meet new people in Europe. I'm a a writer, a singer, and pursuing a career in New York in the entertainment industry.

I'm backpacking Europe June 30th - August 31st 2015 and will be couch surfing and living in hostels during my adventure this summer! Any help would be greatly appreciated :) I am only bringing myself and a backpack and am looking to experience all that I can during these two exiting months of travel. I enjoy meeting new people, socializing, writing in my journal, hiking, swimming, and adventuring in the great outdoors. Optimistic and hopeful, I dream to fully live and tell my story.

PHILOSOPHY

"live the full life of the mind, exhilerated by new ideas, intoxicated by the omance of the unusual." -earnest hemingway

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, learn about the area I'm visiting, learn new languages

I am currently babysitting in New York City, before I start my internship in the Fall after my Europe trip.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

performed at the edinburgh fringe festival in scotland! My friends and I experienced the incredible fringe festival for a month, where we performed in our musical "All Shook Up" and explored the towns in Scotland by day. I was only 17 then, but it was one of the most eye-opening experiences. Since then, I have been filled with wanderlust and a need to see the rest of the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughs, good talks, friendly chatting, and a clean, gracious and quiet traveler :) I have a lot of wonder and optimism and I'm so excited to travel Western Europe and learn all I can. I am very kind and helpful and can help out with anything I can. I'm just looking for a nice place to sleep at night and friendly hosts to meet and hang out with.

Countries I’ve Visited

Mexico, Scotland, United Kingdom, United States
