CURRENT MISSION

Find the jigsaw pieces of the person I want to be, one piece at a time, putting the puzzle together as I go.

ABOUT ME

I'm blessed (cursed?) with wanderlust and an insatiable need for adventure. I love change, I love testing my own limits, and I love the romance of the unknown. School keeps me busy most of the year, but my summers are reserved for exploring and seeking the next crazy awesome experience!

PHILOSOPHY

The only purpose I believe exists in life is the purpose we create for ourselves. Go out there and make your life mean something!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've taken a while to get with the program, but in the future--I plan on testing the comfort level of couches across the world and back! And, if you're ever in my area, I'd love to meet you and hear your story.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A really wonderful two nights in Strasbourg, France with some of the coolest guys ever, who showed me the city and gave me some really great memories. Then a few nights in Berlin, not that I did much sleeping! Too much to see and do in that amazing city!

Interests

Adventure, adrenaline, and uncertainty. Horses, architecture, and travel are my greatest passions, followed closely by food and people. I'm active and sporty, and I'm always up for trying something new!

Music, Movies, and Books

I've been on a Classics kick for a while, so all the books you should have read in your high school English classes currently line my bookshelves. Movies? Anything and everything. Music as well--some of the best music on my computer came from Couchsurfers in other countries!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving in the tropics. Horseback riding in the Rockies. Gold mining in the Alaskan wilderness. Macarones in Paris, fried frog legs in Louisiana, and one really awesome camping trip in the badlands of New Mexico. Sometimes it's the small things.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: how to turn a dream into a goal, and a goal into a memory. Learn: what else life has to offer, things I never thought of before. Share: a laugh, a drink, a thought, and maybe an experience worth retelling later on down the road.
