Hi! My name is Ali. I'm a world traveler, a free spirited wanderer, and a lover of funky pants. I've traveled to over 30 countries so far and have no intention of stopping. I'm currently trying to figure out how to turn my love of travel into a career. In the meantime, I'm at home in Chicago doing yoga, making ceramics, and spending as much time as possible with furry creatures. I most recently got back from spending 5 weeks in Costa Rica, backpacking around and doing a workaway.

I absolutely love exploring new cultures and connecting with people from around the world. I also love doing yoga, making ceramics, doing anything outside, collecting shells on the beach, having dinner parties with friends, photography, wellness, working on my personal growth, succulents, and chocolate. I'm happy to share more details about myself and look forward to getting to know you!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love traveling and connecting with people. The travelers I have met abroad and at home have had such a huge impact on my life. I'm also big on traveling on a budget so I'm so excited to give couch surfing a try!
