My name is Margaret Smith. I am 28 years old, and recently moved to the Metro-Detroit, Michigan area. I grew up in Traverse City, Michigan. I am currently working at a near by hospital as an aid while going to nursing school. I love to travel, and try new things. I love being outside. Whether it be basking in the sun on the beach, swimming in the water, hiking up mountains, or snowboarding down them. My boyfriend, Jared Woodend https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/woodend
and I are always thinking of new things to do and try in our free time. My goal in life is to travel the world, get out of my comfort zone, and meet new and interesting people. Those are the moments when I am truly happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My boyfriend has couch surfed before, and has great stories from his experiences. I think it would truly enhance your vacation, and the memories you make. I love the idea of meeting the locals, and learning how they live. I feel I could find out more about where I am staying, and things to do that most tourists might not know about.
