I have loved to travel ever since I was a little kid on road trips with my family. While in college, I traveled in Europe and across the American Southwest. Recently, I visited Ireland, Wales and England for the first time! I love warm climates, but also really enjoy a chilly urban vibe. I've traveled Europe primarily in the winter.

I am a personal assistant and leadership trainer. I usually do social justice organizing for a better world. For now, I am taking a break to work towards a better, more fulfilled me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been bitten by the travel bug again and am looking to have some adventures. My friend introduced me to the idea of couchsurfing. I only did it once, but I'd like to try it out some more!
