I grew up in a small town in the Midwest and studied at the University of Wisconsin. I'm easygoing and love adventure. When traveling, the tourist things are okay, but I really like to go past the superficial tourist attractions and get to know the people and culture of the area.

I'm currently on a two month trip around Europe after graduation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people from other countries and cultures is great! The world is big, but getting to know others makes it smaller.

Interests

Any genre of music depending on how I'm feeling. Jazz, rock, alt, classical, funk, soul, etc... I love to perform singing or playing trumpet. I follow american football (Packers and the Badgers) and Fútbol as best as I can in the US. Running, swimming, climbing; any physical activity is fun. One goal of mine is to be fluent in multiple languages, still working on it. I like a good party where I can meet new friends.
