I am a pediatric neuroscience travel nurse (currently in CA) My nursing assignments are 3-4 months at a time so I'm traveling the US this way. When I'm not working i'm usually rock-climbing or exploring my city. I believe that human connection is the reason for existing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel I love meeting locals and getting to know a new place that way. I also enjoy hosting and showing people the best parts of my city! (currently I cannot because I'm renting a room for my current assignment). It's beautiful traveling alone and getting to find yourself while also not feeling so scared when you receive help and warmth from locals.
