CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world...one couch at a time.

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going, open-minded chick, who loves a good time! I love meeting new people and hearing stories about their lives and adventures.

I like to laugh; i do it often.

I spent a life-changing month in Cape Town, South Africa in the summer of 2009. Now i cannot wait until i go back...this time for a more permanent stay.

I say with confidence that there's no better feeling than a traveler's high.

“The more I read, the more I meditate; and the more I acquire, the more I am enabled to affirm that I know nothing”
Voltaire

PHILOSOPHY

I do what i love, surround myself with people i love, and try to leave the world a better place than it was when i came into it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I currently live in a dorm, so i don't really have the capacity to host anyone. But, next year, when i'm living in an off-campus apartment, i plan on hosting! In fact, i can't wait! Right now i'm just looking to do some surfing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook pretty well, thanks to my dad. I played cello for six years and i think i remember the basics of it enough to give someone some lessons. I was an editor on my high school newspaper and am willing to edit anything you may need edited for content, style and grammar. I would love to learn any tidbits of foreign languages i can that people i'm staying with speak.
