About Me

😷 What a weird time we are living through! Covid-19 has changed travel and the world forever. Although travel is still possible with new regulations I still want to travel as safely as possible. I am triple vaccinated and would prefer to stay with hosts who are as well. Thanks for understanding!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im on couch surfing to get the most out of my experiences while traveling, I would love to meet new people and learn new things while im traveling! Its amazing to make worldly connections with people and see their country/city from a locals perspective. I would love to try couch surfing while I'm traveling and I would gladly host for people to come stay with me so I can share my city with them. Good vibes go a long way.
