Overview
About Me
I just graduated from college and I am in the phase of figuring out what is next. I am interested in getting involved in bodywork (The Alexander Technique) and education. I am curious and love learning from new experiences.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Growing up , visitors and travelers were always coming in and out of our home. My parents have been members of Servas International ( an international nonprofit that basically does what couch surfing does before the internet) for as long as I can remember. I love having the opportunity to meet people from diverse backgrounds and different life experiences. I love the idea and experience of of being able to connect with people from across the world who would otherwise, I would never have the opportunity to meet. I have so much gratitude for all of the people who I have met, and will meet through these experiences.
Interests
I love being outdoors, hiking, backpacking, and exploring. I love that feeling after listening to a good podcast or reading a good book or having a connected conversation where I feel like I have learned something or that my perspective on something has shifted. I like simple healthy food and connecting with others while continually discovering complexities of humanity.

Teach, Learn, Share
Life is a learning process. Let's learn together.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I believe that there is something to learn from everything and everyone in life. I can not foresee the possible lessons that may emerge from our interaction.
