I am a social work student at Taylor University in Indiana, currently studying abroad at Lithuania Christian College in Klaipeda, Lithuania. Traveling is my first love and coffee is a close second. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the opportunity to see new places from a local's perspective and truly immerse myself in the culture as much as possible. I don't simply want to visit a country as a tourist, but as a sojourner who seeks to invest in their surroundings and allow their experiences to shape them as a person.

Interests

Traveling (duh!), exploring the unknown, reading (mainly biographies and mysteries), Grey's Anatomy, writing (The Great American Novel...just kidding), fashion, spontaneous adventures, people watching, psychology, coffee shops, serving the community, capturing Kodak moments.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's a tie between snorkeling in the Caribbean and swimming in the Dead Sea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to find a classy outfit in a thrift store for under $10, I would love to learn how to drive a manual car, and I tremendously enjoying sharing stories and laughs with other people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my passion for living every moment to the fullest and enthusiasm for exploring the unknown. I will also willingly share my experiences of past trips I've taken in exchange for a comfortable couch and a cup of Joe. :)
