Hello Surfers,

My parents started taking me on vacations with them at a very young age and from it bloomed a deep desire to travel the world and make it a better place in doing so. So far, it's lead me to find this amazing website!

I am currently taking a gap year and decided to use some of it backpacking! I'd say I'm a pretty relaxed person, not too rowdy. I love learning new skills, reading lots of books and meeting new people. I've been on couch surfing for a bit, but I've just recently built on the courage to actually go out there and do it(: If you have any more questions about me, feel free to ask!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love that there's a community dedicated to bridging the gap between cultures and exchanging perspectives with the goal of making the world a better, more connected place.

Interests

Coffee shops are one of my favorite places. You get the feel for the environment, people watching is fun, and you get to be surrounded by people with the option of still being solitary - all while enjoying the sweet taste of heaven in a cup.

If there's a movie playing, I'm most likely going to stop and watch it... Unless it's a horror movie, can't do those.

I've tried learning so many different things: horseback riding, dancing, karate, shooting guns, autobody, soccer(football), painting, the list goes on. Whenever I see someone passionate about something, I love learning about it.

I can read a 300 pg. book in one day, no problem.

Lastly, deep conversations are my favorite, it's where you find the core of a person.
