About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the few sunny days England gives me

ABOUT ME

I'm an American living in England. I absolutely love an excuse to travel, shop or drink a good cup of coffee. A combination of all three is ideal.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change you wish to see in the world (I have this tattooed on me)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had an amazing time couchsurfing in Mali while passing through and also met up with various other couch surfers while living in Senegal. Love to couchsurf, love to host. Every couchsurfing experience has introduced me to amazing people, places and food. Can't wait for the next!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite Books: Entirely too hard a question. I enjoy Dickens and Steinbeck, as far as classics go, but also enjoy Confessions of a Shopaholic and other light reads.

Favorite TV shows are Law & Order, Flight of the Conchords and Family Guy. I cant get enough of any of these shows.

Music wise am up for anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sold almost everything I owned and moved to Africa to join the Peace Corps. I also spent a month backpacking around Europe solo while I was in college, which was amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook and would gladly participate in a culinary exchange. Any new recipes you have, Id love to have them. I am always glad to cook someone a nice dinner.
