Overview
About Me
Recently quit my job as a teaching assistant to travel! I've so far driven across the USA from Buffalo to San Diego, traveled to Spain, Italy, and Croatia, and now back to Cali traveling up the Coast!
In California I became certified as a yoga instructor, and began developing my interests in holistic health, Ayurveda, and other similar ways of life! I am always interested in learning more in these subjects.
Hmm what else to say? I love cooking, music, I love being healthy and outdoor activities like hiking and pretty much anything in nature!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Usually I use Airbnb and have had so many great experiences meeting people that way. Many friendships have come from staying with the locals. I prefer to travel that way, as opposed to doing all the "touristy" stuff.
Interests
I'm very health-conscious, I like to feel good healthy and energized. Music is a HUGE part of my life (isn't it for everyone?!). I love my friends like they are family. And strangers the same way. Always down to try new things.
I love being active. In yoga, Acro yoga, any kind of activity using my body. Hiking, swimming, gymnastics, DANCING! Running, you get it.
I love a good craft beer as much as a good documentary.

Music, Movies, and Books
Zen and the Art of Happiness changed my life.
Right now anything by Deepak Chopra, anything related to Ayurveda, anything I can educate myself with.
The Yoga Sutras
I love psychological thrillers like Memento, Shutter Island, American Beauty, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Created a music and lifestyle festival from scratch, which will be on its third year this year in Buffalo!
Teach, Learn, Share
Always observing, and attempting to spread happiness in everything I do. I believe the more happiness you put out, the more you get back.
I'm a great cook and have lots of positivity to share with people.
What I Can Share with Hosts
SO MUCH LOVE and a giant smile :) and hopefully one day a couch to surf when I settle back down!
