I grew up in Reno, Nevada USA and have always been drawn to traveling, meeting new people and experiencing different cultures. I studied abroad in Costa Rica while I was at university and loved it. Bitten by the travel bug and wanting to see the world, my husband, Jared, and I are wrapping up a year of working holiday in New Zealand and are traveling our way home before my husband starts Medical School. I love coffee, adventure, laughing, creating art, being outdoors and eating good food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have heard great things about couch surfing and hope to meet new friends around the globe and experience the more local side of travel. I hope to host one day when we settle down somewhere.
