I am a native Californian who has adopted the Midwest as my home. I am a former high school teacher and recently finished my Ph.D. in US history. I am engaged and looking forward to getting married in June 2015.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had great experiences with my fiance staying with people in Ontario, Colorado, and California. I would love to be able to pay the experience forward.
