CURRENT MISSION

I am here to experience all that I can experience in this life.

ABOUT ME
I graduated high school in May of 2014. As the rest of my classmates and friends headed off to college, I chose the world as my next classroom. I decided to take a gap year traveling around (mostly) Southeast Asia. I am now hooked on traveling. I want to meet people with diverse cultures. I want to indulge in unique crazy foreign foods. I want to see the incredibly beautiful sights nature has created around the world. I want to experience all there is to experience.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy for life is to simply experience and learn. Take risks and step outside of the box. The only way we can grow is by undergoing new experiences. There is so much in this world, and I want to learn it all.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used Couchsurfing during my stay in Southeast Asia, South American, and Eastern Europe, Western Europe, North Africa, and The Middle East. I stayed in everything from houses to bamboo huts in small villages. Some of my host transformed the experience for me. I met many people that I remain good friends with still.

Interests

I love everything about travel all I can think about is travel. I love experiencing and learning about other cultures. I feel so alive going to monuments and beautiful natural settings. I enjoy exploring new cities, but I also love trekking through jungles. I recently became a foodie. I enjoy tasting and eating all different types of delicious food. I love Indian food!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movies are comedies and documentaries. Though they are quite different genres of movies, I love to laugh, and I love to learn.
I'm a big fan of any song with a good beat and that i can sing too. I may not be too good at singing, but I always find myself singing non stop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things I have ever done was hike down into the volcanic crater of Kawah Ijen to see the blue flames in Java, Indonesia. It was an odd feeling being at the top of a volcano at two in the morning alone in the dark. The blue flames were incredibly unique, breathtakingly beautiful, and thrilling. The atmosphere and feeling is something I will never forget.
