I grew up in a small rural community and absolutely love exploring, whether that be a city neighborhood, a deserted beach or a national park. I enjoy the mountains for their spiritual energy and activities such as hiking, camping, animal watching. I love the beach for it's meditative state and get involved in surfing, diving, snorkeling, jumping off high things. I have a passion for finding balance in life whether that be sleep, exercise, eating, drinking, working or travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The Couchsurfing community is by far the best way to connect with like-minded people and experience a true authentic destination. I am so grateful to be able to travel to far flung places and experience all the different cultures. It is always the people I have met along the way that have made a destination so special and memorable.
