Top Five Things to Know About Me:

1. I wish I could travel the world for the rest of my life. However, real world obligations preclude me from doing so.

2. I'm a respectful, laid back, easy going person but still find drive and passion for the things I love.

3. I grew up in California, just graduated from the University of Washington, and will be moving to Portland, OR to work at the Nike World Headquarters next year.

4. I enjoy going out and exploring new places but am also always fine with a relaxing night in.

5. I truly love meeting new people and honestly believe that there is something to learn from every interaction with someone.

There is so much more to me that spans beyond my five points above, so feel free to ask me anything!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Having just joined Couchsurfing and heard about it from friends, I'm amazed and excited by the number of positive stories that surfers have had. In any and every experience, I've found that it truly is the people. It's the people who make my experiences meaningful. Couchsurfing brings that to the unique traveling experience.

Before venturing off into the real world of corporate life, one of my best friends from college and I are venturing off into our post-graduation trip to Europe. We're traveling for about three weeks and are so excited to explore, learn, and engage with new cultures.

Though I don't have the accommodations to host Couchsurfers at the moment (as I'm in the process of moving), I hope to be able to give back to this incredible community sometime soon.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I can enjoy just about all genres of music, with only a few exceptions, but prefer indie folk and folk rock.

Movies...despite having a genuine interest in cinematography, I have a bad habit of falling asleep while watching movies. Love them nonetheless and favorites include the good, old Forrest Gump and Remember the Titans.

A great conversation. A home-cooked meal with a beer/wine/non-alc pairing, if you would like. A respectful, clean, and appreciative Couchsurfing guest experience.
