I'm an adventurous soul always longing to explore! I'm 27, from the suburbs of Chicagoland. A crafty, laid back, responsible, caring type of girl. Loves pizza, dogs, and whiskey. Fun fact: I have a rock collection going from all the places I've gone :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently about to backpack Europe for the first time so I'm here to meet new people and experience new places through their eyes. Nothing more amazing than getting to know a place through locals. Hopefully make some long lasting friendships!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music despite country and edm. I mostly listen to alternative, indie, old school hip hop, oldies and punk (I'm all over the place I know!). Some of my favorite bands are M83, Portugal the Man, Joywave, Glass Animals, Bee Gees, j Cole, chance the rapper. SciFi and fantasy nerd for books and movies!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Drove across the Western half of the United States with a tent for a few weeks. Saw the sunset at the Grand canyon, rode horses through the Arizona Desert, drove the PCH, hiked the Redwoods, saved a bird from the top of the Rockies, found a bunch of cool rocks along the way :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

While I don't have much, I can offer some great conversation, a lot of laughs, and a great time! I do possess some awesome cooking skills and I love trying new food!
