Most other cliches you'd assume about me are probably true.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling. I love stories. I love people and their stories. Why not be a place to house all of the above?!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1.) Drove two hrs to the beach by myself in uni at 4 in the morning to see the sunrise.
2.) Starting a random conversation with an old man at Bloomsbury Park in London. He ended up being a painter who has lived in London for 45 years and I had freshly arrived. He told me all these great things about the city. On top of this, he showed me his art gallery and told me all about his life in London. The ups, the downs. The pros, the cons. How he liked London better in the 60's and why. Oh, it was just marvelous.
3.) Driving 9 hours with two best friends through the night to go to a small town in Arkansas to meet four strangers we had never met before. We spent the whole weekend with these four new friends that we met upon arrival through my other friends CS account. It was absolutely fantastic.
