ABOUT ME

I am a fun, outgoing, funny, adventurous, travel-minded girl currently living in Senegal as a Peace Corps Volunteer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have just joined the CS community, but very much want to become an active participant through hosting and surfing... I hope to make a donation after my volunteer work in Africa ends and I get a "real job".
