CURRENT MISSION

Befriend wonderful human beings who are ready to adventure with me.

ABOUT ME

I love experiencing new people and cultures that stretch my mind and comfort zone. I grew up in Kentucky, spent four years in San Diego for undergrad, had an amazing experience circumnavigating the globe with Semester at Sea in 2011, took a Eurotrip after graduating college, spent a couple summers in upstate New York, went to grad school in Portland, and now am back in Kentucky for the time being. I love dogs, words, adventures, food, red wine, nature, hiking, photography, ukes, beards, and learning.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything that's worth anything requires a leap of faith.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm back at home with my mom, so not in a place where I can host anymore, but I've done a little surfing and a little hosting over the last few years. Have yet to have a bad experience, so I'm going to keep at it :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
LOVE IT! Some of my friends (and definitely parents) have been skeptical of me couchsurfing, but I have had such awesome experiences through this site!

教，学，和分享

I went on the study abroad program Semester at Sea, so I know a bit about that program and the countries we went to during my voyage. I can share my experiences in these countries and with this program. I would love to learn about new people and cultures, so am excited to learn from future friends I meet on Couchsurfing!
