Hi!
Well let's start with the basics. My name is Elizabeth Martinez, but I prefer to be called Lizzy. I am currently a student at the University of Texas at San Antonio and I majored in Business Management and I'm expecting to graduate this May with my bachelors, YAY!! So because of that my roommate and I are taking a month long back packing adventure through Europe to celebrate! I like to consider myself a very happy, spontaneous, extroverted person that enjoys living freely. I haven't yet found my passion in life and as cliche as it sounds, I'm hoping this trip helps me find it!

I recently discovered that I have a deep, deep desire to explore and travel ( much like a lot of y'all). It took one simple spontaneous trip where my roommate and I decided to hop in a car in the middle of the night and drive thousands of miles across America. It really opened my eyes to how truly amazing and big this world is and made me want to see what else this world has to offer. So here I am today, planning this trip!

I love everything outdoors. I have played soccer since I was 8, I've ran track and participate is basically anything I can. I love hiking, climbing, biking and exploring! I'm very open to new adventures and love meeting new people.

I enjoy fitness and staying healthy but also enjoying life, meals and drinks when I desire to! So I created a blog that depicts exactly that life style and if you want to check it out here it is! ( Shotsnsquats.com )

My Goal is to one day live in a combi van for a couple months and travel across America! I want to stop at the most beautiful places and wake up to incredible views! ONE DAY!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I figure this is a great way to travel to a new place, meet new people, try new things and still be able to afford it all!
