I'm a young girl looking to get lost... I've been across the U.S. and back a few times by hopping freight trains and hitchhiking. I'm hoping to start exploring other countries as well! (I'm quite partial to Scotland, as it were). I've had a range of experiences in my short lifetime, including working as a blacksmith in an anarchist blacksmith shop, teaching glassblowing to kids, silversmithing in my basement, and going on tour across the country with my band. I play cello, saxophone, piano, guitar, and ukulele, and would love to learn the bagpipes! In summary, I'm up for anything, down for anything, and ready to see the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet travelers, see the world from locals' eyes, and one day host when I have my own place!

Interests

Music, art, blacksmithing, travel, culture, animals, and working out (haha, just kidding)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a punk rock girl, but I'm classically trained as well. My favorite movie is "The Shawshank Redemption", and my favorite books at the moment are the "Outlander" novels. Hence my slight obsession with Scotland... :P

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hopped freight trains across the United States at age 18.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you any instrument that I play, and most likely ones I don't play. I would love to learn more languages, and maybe how to snowboard (can't be too different from skateboarding, right?). I will serenade people on command, and most likely will do so without command as well :P

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've been told I have a wonderful voice, and will sing/play anything you request (like a jukebox!). If I don't know the song, I will learn it, just for you :)
