About Me

I'm a world-traveling writer who's sometimes a digital nomad, and sometimes a full-time traveler. My biggest passion in life is hiking, followed by eating and exploring urban places (so, urban hiking). I'm not much of a drinker, but I love discovering cool, creative community-based activities wherever I go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly to meet people! I love traveling, and traveling solo, but as an introvert I sometimes find it difficult to approach people on my own, even when staying in social hostels. I use couchsurfing mostly for finding events and people to connect with in the place that I'm visiting. Because I love hiking, I sometimes use couchsurfing to find a place to leave extra luggage while I'm on the trail.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Beijing in winter was the best trip I've been on. Yes, there was pollution. Yes, it was cold. But because it was cold, my sister and I found ourselves totally isolated on the Great Wall of China, taking in the amazing sights in total peace. I spent an afternoon exploring the Forbidden City with only the company of the security guards pretending not to follow me, two Indian tourists, and a woman doing a photoshoot in an extravagant red dress.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a dedicated Spanish student after many months of living in Latin America (I've been all over Mexico, especially). Any kind of language exchange interests me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to consider myself a decent cook so we can always prepare meals together and show off wines and cheeses we like.
