Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My mission is to be invited into as many different homes to eat dinner/lunch/breakfast as possible.
ABOUT ME
I'm a junior at UC hoping to find a job as a travel photographer. Traveling has always been my favorite thing to do. I grew up watching the Travel channel instead of cartoons. When I was 14 I went to Uganda, Africa and I haven't stopped traveling since. So far I've been back to Uganda for a total of 3 times. I studied abroad in Florence, Italy, I choose the city because of my love of Renaissance art, and because I didn't realize it is one of the most popular study abroad destinations! I've been to quite a few places around Europe. This summer I'm planning on going to South East Asia. I haven't been anywhere that I wouldn't want to return to and I haven't heard of anywhere that I wouldn't want to go.
I like to tell stories through photos. The true kind. I believe that everyone you meet has a beautiful story just waiting to be told.
PHILOSOPHY
I'm still working on this one.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now I just surf - because I live with my parents - but I would to host in the future.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have only couch surfed once in the past and it was a really great experience.
Interests
I love photography, specifically travel and street photography. I like to wear and sometimes make hats. Traveling is one of my main interests, of course! When I have a spare minute I like to craft. Recently I started marbling paper. I'm trying to learn to spin my own yarn but I can't seem to get the hang it.

Music, Movies, and Books
I've never met a well written book I didn't like. Harry Potter has been a continuous favorite of mine. The movies as well.
I don't watch movies nearly as often as I should. I love a film in a language other than my mother tongue.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've seen lots of amazing things - I like to see amazing in the mundane.
I taught my nephew how to tie his shoes. His reaction was amazing, once he finally got it!
Teach, Learn, Share
I like to learn random skills and I have plenty of them that I would love to share.
