I'm a traveling Registered Nurse (RN) from the US who specializes in Intensive Care and loves to travel between shifts. I love visiting new cultures and embracing new customs, food, and experiences. I am adventurous to the core. I also love meeting new people and learning their stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a travel addict! Plus, I adore meeting people and experiencing new cultures in its purest forms. I haven’t been able to host or be a guest yet, but people say the couch surfing community is amazing! Can’t host just yet though, since I currently move every 13 weeks for work and travel between moves :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Pretty random music tastes. But my favorites include Alt-j, Ben Howard, Sufjan Stevens, The Oh Hellos, Youth Lagoon, Cold War Kids, and the list goes on. Movies - anything based on a true story, meaningful, and portraying real lives with real stories. Same goes with books - I love memoirs. I also enjoy fascinating medical books and classic novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Competitive figure skater for 12+ years

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing experiences and stories. I am desperate to learn more Spanish. Also, medical skills happen to be a specialty of mine... so definitely enjoy health education.
