About Me

I am finally living my dream of backpacking from Cape Town to Cairo!

I hope to meet as many new people as possible and create lifelong friends. I am very helpful, kind, and easy to get along with.
I want to be fully immersed in every experience/culture. I love to learn about people and try new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people. I believe you can learn something new from every person you meet. I am very open minded, easy going, and love to learn from others.

I love the idea of living like a local. I want to learn the ins and outs of each new place I visit, and Couch surfing seems like a wonderful way to do that.

I am very grateful for this opportunity and hope to create some lifelong friendships throughout this experience!

Interests

I love outdoor activities, hiking, camping, swimming, biking, etc.
I lead a very active lifestyle and I am always am down to try new things.
I love music, art, and I have a passion for animals.
(If you have pets it’s a plus!!)
I want to learn to cook!
