About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To eat, drink and play in as many different countries as possible.

ABOUT ME

I am in my early twenties and want to see the world before I have to really start being responsible. Rome is my favorite destination thus far but I am willing to let other cities try to sway me in their favor.

PHILOSOPHY

Whoever coined the phrase "once in a lifetime" was not very ambitious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couch surfed once in London and it was a great experience. I currently can't host but am hoping to do so in the near future. I miss meeting fellow travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friend and I couch surfed in London and it was a great experience. We felt completely safe and our host was extremely helpful and friendly.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Sound of Music is a highly significant part of my life. My favorite book is A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce; however, I have also read the Harry Potter series more times than is possibly healthy. I enjoy music, especially live shows. I'm interested in most types of music. Some of my favorites are Coldplay, Jimmy Buffett, John Brown's Body, Vampire Weekend, Raffi and Bob Dylan.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am always amazed looking out at the ocean. Sleeping on the beach under the stars is one of my favorite activities.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm new to this but one thing I've learned from traveling is that plans will often go awry and that it isn't always a bad thing. Sometimes a major screw up can turn into a great time.

Countries I’ve Visited

Aruba, Canada, Croatia, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Monaco, Morocco, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom
