I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Republic of Georgia for the last two years and now I'm temporarily calling Austin my home. Although I am an American, my heart belongs abroad. I love traveling because of how one can learn so much of other places, other cultures, and to grow as a person. Having a great time and meeting new people abroad is always a plus as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing so that whenever I travel, I can meet locals that are open to showing outsiders a good time. When I travel, I try to avoid the traditional tourist experience and go for what the locals like to do. With Couchsurfing, I'd have the chance to do that.

Interests

I enjoy teaching, reading, music, and hiking. Having a pint at a local pub with good company is always a good thing as well.
