About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To keep learning and growing. And maybe sprout some wings to travel more!

ABOUT ME

26 year old woman currently in the Peace Corps in Lesotho. I'll be trying to travel around Southern Africa as much as possible during my service.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy your life to the fullest, don't harm others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Previously, I surfed in Europe but am now hosting in Lesotho, Africa if anyone is passing through! Fair warning: the trip to my house off the main road is not quick or easy. One option is a long and slow taxi ride on dirt roads plus a walk, while the other is a shorter taxi ride on the main road but a long hike up the mountain to my house. Also, I only have a sleeping pad and bag. No couch here

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking to the top of mountains ranks pretty high on the amazing scale.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been studying Bikram Yoga for four years now and am very interested in medicine and the body. I'm in the process of deciding between studying acupuncture, Chinese medicine and Western medicine. I know I need some kind of integrative approach. I just don't know what that means for me yet.

I'm pretty damn good at most card games. Cribbage is one of my favorites and it's not widely played. Let me know if you'd like to learn.

Currently, I'm focusing on language acquisition and music knowledge. Any help would be appreciated!

I also love kicking a soccer ball around any day or time!
