About Me

I have been traveling, doing freelance documentary film work and adventuring for the last year and can't get enough. I am a soul searching, puppy loving, adventure junkie and am always down for a good time whether it be out exploring nature, in a city getting lost of the streets or just relaxing with good people and a glass of wine. I enjoy good food, good conversation and love meeting new people and experiencing all different cultures while learning people's perspectives on the world around them and thus expanding my own. I am also fond of goats!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with people and gain an understanding for how the locals live in a given area. Make new friends and create authentic experiences that truly connect me to my surroundings.

Interests

Communication. Goats. Dogs. Personal development. Health. Volleyball. Rock climbing. The ocean. Mother Nature. Food. Culture. Love. Friendship. Community. The moon. Wine. Music. Dancing. Photography. Making a fool of myself.

Music, Movies, and Books

As far as music goes, I have eclectic taste and can find joy in many different types of music, to name just a few favorites: Dr. Dog, Wilco, Paulo Nutini, Nora Jones, Taylor Swift, John Prine, The Beatles, Tallest Man on Earth, Ingrid Michaelson, The Cranberries, Joni Mitchell, Cat Power, Cat Steven, Alice Smith, Shakey Graves, Lake Street Dive... Okay thats more than a few, but once I start I can't stop. Dancing makes me happy, good music to dance to is always a plus.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Received a bath from an elephant, while sitting on its back at Chitwan national forest in Nepal.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share good conversation and am always down to cook meals with or for others. I love to learn new cooking techniques and phrases of native languages. Always plan on sharing lots of laughs, a must!

Fun. Food. Laughs.
