freedom, beauty, truth, love

I try to live my life by these pillars. I believe there is still goodness in the world and that kindness matters more than most things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and thought that Couchsurfing would be a good way to meet locals and get an inside scoop on placing I'm visiting.

Interests

I really enjoy being outdoors and learning about natural landscapes and ecosystems in new places. I am also interested in really, really good cheese.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all things Harry Potter.

My favorite music is acoustic, singer/songwriter types, but I'm open to most types of music.

I love watching movies, except horror. Scary movies are definitely not my jam.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My two weeks camping trip in the Smoky Mountains was pretty amazing. I love being outside camping, hiking, and enjoying the natural world. The Smokies are so beautiful and there is something incredible to find around every curve.

Countries I’ve Visited
