I attended Vanderbilt in Nashville, TN, for one year and was extremely unhappy with the direction my life was headed. There was nothing truly wrong with it, but I took a very long look at myself and completely reevaluated the way I look at life. I'm trying to travel, work on myself, and generally just enjoy and be awed by existence. I'm not accepting guests at the moment but if you're a traveler in the NH seacoast/Boston area I'd be happy to show you around!
Interested in Hiking

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm heading to New Zealand soon and I'll be traveling from one end (North) to the other (South) for a year. I'll also be staying at hostels, WWOOFing, and camping, and I think couchsurfing seems like a great way to get to know some new and interesting people, while experiencing NZ life in a totally different way!
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Bon Iver, Halsey, Simon and Garfunkel, the Killers, Alt-J, the Vaccines, Band of Horses, pretty much anything as long as it's good. Movies/TV: Ferris Bueller's Day Off, the Breakfast Club, Die Hard, Smiley Face, Brooklyn 99, Stranger Things, lots of others Books: Harry Potter, The Bell Jar, too many to list. I'll read almost anything.
My Interests
I grew up in New Hampshire, and we think we have incredible mountains (which, to be fair, we do - they're stunning) but they're actually pretty tiny compared to the rest of the world. I love hiking around home but I'm so excited for some of NZ's incredible trails!
