ABOUT ME

I love traveling and meeting new people. I just graduated from university, and I'm visiting friends in Indonesia before I start a Fulbright teaching position in Belém Brazil. I'm excited to see the Amazon. I've wanted to go since I was a little kid obsessed with nature documentaries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to couchsurfing, but I think it is an incredible idea. I've always tried to do homestays or visit friends when I travel, and the exchanges I have had from those experiences are some of my best memories.
