Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been working for years and saving up to travel during breaks in my school year. I immerse myself deeply into my studies and work schedule but find myself growing distant from my passion to write, make friends, and experience cultures outside of the U.S. I'm looking for great hosts to share my stories and time with while I travel from place to place.

Interests

Making new friends, taking good photos, writing, and learning the culture and history of each place I see.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

During spring break I spent some time studying local farming, medical resource scarcity, and rain forest preservation with the Nicaraguan army in rural San Carlos, Nicaragua. The trip was supposed to be for school but being surrounded by people that spoke my native language, experiencing a slower pace of life, and being surrounded by so many different types of people, I fell in love with the place and discovered my love for traveling. I hope to continue this on through Europe and hopefully Indo-China.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I cook really well and would be more than happy to help cook and learn new dishes.
