I love to travel and try new things. In August 2018 my boyfriend and I are planning a year long trip (Europe, SE Asia and South America). Making new friends and building community is important to me. I’m an animal and environment lover and am vegan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for a way to meet cool locals who can show me the back roads. I also want to find cheap accommodation so I can spend money on experiences and delicious food rather than hotel rooms!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you have photography skills I'd love to learn from you! I'm trying to expand my knowledge in that area. Traveling on a budget tips. I'm always open to recommendations for places to see, restaurants to try, and adventures to have.

What I Can Share with Hosts

An open minded and determined attitude to try new things. Adventures. Vegan food- I'm happy to cook for you! My boyfriend is a chef so he's shared a lot of knowledge with me. And since we're often traveling together he'll be happy to help in the kitchen too. I'm also an amateur photographer and if we go on adventures together I can share photos I take of you!
