Hello, my name is Maria. I am from Colorado, USA. When I was younger my family traveled a lot and I got to see many parts of the world. I was home schooled, constantly trying new activities, meeting new people, and having new experiences. My upbringing couldn't be called normal. Once we finally settled down, I found that I didn't like it as much and so as soon as could I jumped at the opportunity to travel again. I love that Couchsurfing not only makes travelling affordable, but also allows you to learn new things and meet many like minded - and yet very different - people.

I look forward to making many new memories in many new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and couch surfing is not only an affordable way to do so, but also an interesting one. It's a great way to meet new people and see a place in a different, more native way.
