I am adventurous, considerate and almost always in a great mood. I love eating great food (I'm vegetarian), exploring, living frugally, camping, laughing, drinking wine with friends, and watching live music.

After finishing university, now I'm always on the move, exploring new places or cities, and getting to know the people and cultures there. At some points along the road like to find volunteer work via Workaway to stay and get to know a place for longer. Most likely, working in a hostel or finding a community-based project with which I can get involved.

When I was living and hosting in Seattle, I was a university student and worked at a co-op grocery store. I'd like to show off my city to travelers, I had a couple favorite places in my neighborhood which were some of the best in the city: Thai Tom (for Thai food) and Allegro or Slate for great coffee. I enjoyed biking around the city, listening to music in my flat, or getting out into the mountains for some overnight backpacking.
