Hello!!

I am an animal- and nature-loving, climate-fearing, enthusiastic, curious, open, loving, dorky, free-flowing, spontaneous person who is trying to get out into the world more!

I love to trail run; I find joy and fulfillment in learning about the world through reading and listening; I highly value being with people, and I cherish having fun with people; I adore and am magnetized to local coffee shops (to drink and eat yummy goodies and read about important happenings); and I like to keep myself busy! In my life, I strive to frequent all of these efforts.

Yay! Thank you for giving me a chance! See you around!

-Ally/Allyson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My motivation for getting on Couchsurfing is for a less-expensive way to travel, but I am a people-lover and I'll be excited to get to meet nice locals! I'll love to spend time with hosts but I also enjoy to go out alone. I'm flexible!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Bag Raiders electronic duo for life!; deep house and electro-funk music; symphonies; reggaeton.

Movies: I don't watch movies often, but I get super into them! I love comedy and adventure, and appreciate a deep drama. I don't like horror and gory and violent films, but can kind of stand it if it's based on a non-fictional story. Just to list something.. I love Jurassic World, Guardians of the Galaxy, Minions, Monte Python and the Holy Grail, those kind of things!

Books: I haven't finished a book in a while, but I love reading articles about the energy and transportation sectors and ecological and environmental news and dynamics. I also love articles on spirituality and personal development. But, just to list something, I read the whole Count of Monte Cristo a while ago and it was AMAZING, and I will be on a quest to read The Book of Secrets by Osho some day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

BURNING MAN. It'll open your heart in ways you never imagined. The unconditional love, expression, and acceptance will change your life. I LOVE YOU BURNING MAN.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am still in the process of discovering what I have to offer the world, but I have a lot of energy and I love teaching things that I understand and that I think are important. We could all be using our daily resources more efficiently and could be making better choices, and I aspire to teach about that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am happy to get you anything you want or need! I'm a generous person and am not living on a budget. I'm happy to compensate in any way that you'd desire - and although Couchsurfing is technically free, I'm very happy to compensate you nevertheless for your generosity! Please don't hesitate to ask me for a contribution.
