Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I am easy-going and easy to talk to. I am constantly sharing quotes, and love to use them in conversation. I am very open-minded and curious, but not judgmental. My best friends would definitely comment on my ability to understand people. I majored in Psychology and Social Work and enjoy connecting with people and learning about other cultures and languages. After following my heart, I have found myself as a flight attendant for a major international airline. I feel that the best way to learn about another culture is to completely immerse yourself in it, and this includes food and language.
PHILOSOPHY
"There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler only who is foreign."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love to meet people and connect. I believe we have so much to teach and learn from each other if we only open our hearts and minds.
Interests
I love traveling, hiking, cooking, trying out new restaurants, spending time with friends, and making new ones! Yoga, meditation, travel (of course!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was an au-pair in Genova, Italy in 2013. Growing up I had always been very shy, and taking that leap of faith and journeying to another country alone changed me forever in the very best of ways. It started me on my love affair with travel and I have been infatuated ever since.
Teach, Learn, Share
Every person you meet has a story, and while I am here I want to learn about as many stories as I can!
What I Can Share with Hosts
