About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Love life, love people.

ABOUT ME

I am a 28 year old who loves life and loves people. Everyone has a story and it is so fun to hear the different ones out there.
ENfj/p. I love to travel, and hope to see as much of the world as I can while I still can. I'm easy going, and also outgoing. One of my favorite things is meeting people, and I love to try and see new things.
I don't have any exciting camera, but I love to take pictures.
I also love chai tea lattes, peanut butter, peanut butter M&M's, orange chocolate, boating, and people watching!

PHILOSOPHY

Get absolutely everything you can out of life and give all you can in return. Just remember to keep the eternal perspective.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've surfed different countries in Europe while backpacking for three weeks. I have also had the opportunity to surf some in the United States as well. I can't wait to have my own surfers!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed in Brussels, Belgium; Amsterdam, The Netherlands; Paris, France; Lisbon, Portugal; Barcelona, Spain; Nice, France; Luzern, Switzerland; Tampa Bay, Florida; Reykjavik and Húsavík Iceland.

Interests

Reading, writing, hiking, water skiing, snow skiing, wakeboarding, soccer, softball, photography...sometimes I get random urges to make random crafts... I love having good conversations. I am a good listener, and I can talk about basically any subject. I have a political science degree..but don't worry, I have a philosophy minor so I'm still open minded ;).

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a good adventure movie but can't help but love the tear-jerker. Not gonna lie, I also really like history movies.
Music-just about anything and everything. Too much hard metal and I start to get a headache though.
Books- I really love to read...can read for hours. Give me a good book, a nice day, and I can read my life away. Don't get me wrong, I love to go out and play, but reading is such a good escape.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Something amazing I've done/seen would be the fact that I have been able to travel the world so much. I would say Victoria Falls in Zambia was one of the most spectacular views I have ever seen. I was able to bungee jump off of it with a few friends, truly amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

So my dad is someone who has a ridiculous amount of knowledge...like insanely smart. So by listening to him I have picked up a lot of random facts. He's also the one to share the Snapple Cap facts....so if you want a lot of random useless knowledge, I'm your girl :). I also love the Lord with all my heart. Would never want to push anything on anyone but would love to hear yours take on the subject and would love to discuss any opinion you have (don't worry, unless you start screaming at me, whatever you say, I won't be offended or judge you :)!).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter, stories and smiles! I also love to bring something from the best state in the United States!
