CURRENT MISSION

To conquer my fears and be present

ABOUT ME

I am an American liberal arts student studying for the year in Paris. I am determined to travel as much as I can while in Europe.

I am a creative type, and I love nonjudgmental and passionate people. I am usually shy upon first meeting a person, but with some music and good conversation I will open up. And give me a dance floor! I loose myself in good music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I tend to get swept up in thoughts/perceptions. I'm more of a wanderer than a leader or follower, but I prefer wandering with other people, so join me or let me join you!
