Overview
About Me
I am a 24 year old recent graduate of college. I love to travel and gain insight on different perspectives all around the world. I accept and want to learn more about different cultures and traditions. Im very open minded and down to earth and am looking forward to meeting new people.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am on Couchsurfing to indulge in a whole new way to meet locals in the areas I plan to travel. I want to really get to dive to into the culture rather than meet a bunch of tourist. I want to immerse my self.
Interests
I enjoy exploring, learning, history, sports, staying active, working out, reading, having fun, hanging out, and going out. Anything really that makes me a better person as well as bringing out the best in others.
Music, Movies, and Books
I like all types of music, depends on the setting of course. I enjoy true story books and movies. Enjoy reading books to improve my perception through different views as well as allowing myself to gain insight from the past. I enjoy learning about history and the reason for the way things were established since it renders reason for the present.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I solo backpacked for 2 months, to 30 cities and 15 countries in Europe.
- 12 day, 125 miles, and 17,700 foot trek in the Himalayas
- 10 days of silence and isolation, mediating 11 hours a day with the technique of Vipassana
- 4 months solo backpacked in Asia
Spent just shy of 3 months living in the Peruvian Amazon
