I have recently been traveling for a year, visiting 11 countries in 11 months. I have learned so much living in a new country every month and experiencing the vastness in culture from continent to continent.

I spend my free time attending or watching sporting events, trying craft breweries, frequenting coffee shops, eating local food, or even chilling at home for a movie or game night with family and friends. I am passionate about experiencing all life has to offer, including meeting new people and learning about their loves and passions. I am excited to spend time wandering through new places and building friendships with the people I meet along the way!

One day, I would love to live abroad permanently. I have a dream of opening and/or running a coffee shop abroad. I have always loved traveling and hope to continue to see as much of the world as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have traveled in many countries doing mission/volunteer work. Now, I want to take 3 weeks to travel through a few countries in Western Europe on a budget. I am excited to meet new friends who can help me experience life in their country through the eyes of a local.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Currently traveling to 11 countries in 11 months through a nonprofit organization called Adventures in Missions.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn what you enjoy most about your country. I also want to know one thing I should do to experience life in your country as a local would.

I can teach you about any nutrition fact you have ever wanted to know! I am passionate about wholistic health, but don't be fooled- I am a person who LOVES desserts, coffee, beer, and really good food. A burger and beer is one of my favorite meals! I enjoy learning and sharing about nutrition with anyone interested, but more importantly, I enjoy experiencing all that food brings to culture!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to bless you by taking you out for a cup of coffee, tea, beer, ice cream or something else you love! Your time is valuable to me, but if it works out, I definitely want to get to know you. :)
Also, If you are trying to learn English, I can definitely help you practice!
