I am a 31 year old, single American who has recently found herself unemployed due to downsizing. Faced with the decision to find another menial and unsatisfying job or jump off a bridge, I have opted to sell my belongings and defect to Europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While exploring Europe I will be on a very limited budget. When it runs out, I am done and faced with returning to my home country. I would like to learn about each place I visit and get advice on becoming a resident and finding work.

Interests

My interests are all over the place. I love history and romanticism. I am obsessed with space and the cosmos. I also love beer, loud music and site-seeing.

Music, Movies, and Books

This is good conversation to have in person because all of these lists could go on for days! Here are a few of each:
Vonnegut, Nietzsche, Hunter S. Thompson, Oscar Wilde, Dan Brown, George Orwell.
V for Vendetta, Super Troopers, Requiem for a dream, plus pretty much everything else.
Game of Thrones, Walking Dead, Daily Show, Last Week Tonight.
I LOVE Cosmos or any documentary about space.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nothing really yet, which is part of my reasoning for doing this crazy thing.

Countries I’ve Visited
