Hi, my name is Alexandria and I love to make things, travel, and meet new people. I also love to sail and I make shoes for a living. I have been an artist my whole life and am living my dream career. I believe each of our purposes on this planet is to live our happiest lives and follow our dreams. I also believe that anything is possible and that all of the people in our lives have happened for a reason. That is why I like to travel through couch surfing, to meet new people, learn how they live and grow from my experiences with them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
