Hey all! I am a recent college grad, interested in learning more about the world. I am currently on a trip around the US to explore and meet new people. I am bouncing around from friends' houses and National Parks/Forests along the way, but would love to meet new people as well! (Hence, I am a budding surfer)

I really love meeting new people; I get a ton of energy from interacting with and learning from new folks. I also love to eat, laugh, play/listen to music, hike, bike, crochet, watch movies, and do new things. I am looking forward to meeting new friends!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet new folks as I travel! I am hoping to find a place to crash along my trips around the world, making new friends along the way.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list!

Movies: Especially passionate about Southeast Asian Cinema for some reason (Oldboy, Ip Man, etc.), Pixar and Studio Ghibli of course, comedies, and many more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Big Texan Challenge in Amarillo, Texas, USA! 72 oz. (2 kg) steak + fixins eaten in under 1 hour. To be honest, I didn't finish the challenge... I finished the steak and my body rejected the rest xD Still a blast!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love meeting new people, sharing perspectives, and learning from one another. I am really interested in connecting with new people, learning about their backgrounds, and coming to a better understanding and awareness of the different philosophies we all use. It's a great tool for reflecting and better understanding myself as well!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook, so I'd be happy to chef something up while I visit (complete with cleaning dishes after the meal, of course).

I also love to play/learn music... can play some old-time clawhammer banjo, and trying to learn everything else! :D
