ABOUT ME

Hi my name is Jess and I am originally from Burlington, VT. I just moved to Oklahoma to start graduate school at Oklahoma State University. Before moving to the midwest I lived in Italy as an au pair and in Boston for a year after. I love to be outdoors... running, hiking, snowboarding, traveling, kayaking.. anything and everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to hear peoples stories and their experiences with couchsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

After I graduated university I went on a backpacking adventure for 4 months through Europe and 2 through SEA. I used CS in various countries to stay with local people and see what their towns/villages/cities were like to them. I found that it was a great way to get off the beaten track so to say. It was really great to go to smaller places that I would not have had the opportunity to go to without CS!
I surfed in Ireland, France, Norway, England, Malaysia, Spain, Italy and Portugal.... great times!
