About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to see the world, meet new people, and make new memories.

ABOUT ME

Overall I'm a pretty easy going person and I'd like to consider myself open-minded. I am always interested in learning something new. Because of this, I really enjoy meeting new people. I enjoy spending time with interesting and good-hearted people.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we only get to live life once, so we should live it well. When it comes down to it, the relationships that you build throughout your life will be the greatest treasures. It is good to keep an open mind and be willing to learn from others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I have only surfed other couches and attended/organized CS gatherings. I want to host so let me know if you need a couch in Burlington, Vermont!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed for the first time when I arrived in Copenhagen. It was great and I absolutely loved it. I have since met up with other CSers to attend a jazz festival and bar crawl. It's a great community of great people!

Interests

One of my main passions in life is food. Thus, I love to cook, dine with good company, and try new foods. I also really enjoy traveling and I hope to see more of the world. I enjoy talking to people and hearing their stories and experiences. I have recently started a new hobby - gardening and composting. I'm still learning the ropes of it and definitely want to more about it. I'm a firm believer in healthy eating and what better way to achieve that than to grow my own vegetables!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to the top of the Pulpit Rock in Norway, where a breathtaking view of the fjord and the low-lying clouds awaited me. Surprisingly, I also ran into my cousin on hike down. The amazing thing about this detail is that we live in different countries and only see each other at most every 3 or 4 years, and we had no idea the other was traveling in Norway!

Countries I’ve Visited

Cambodia, France, India, Japan, Laos, Norway, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand

Countries I’ve Lived In

Denmark, Sweden, United States
