Hey there, Candace here. :-) I’m a people person moving through life and making meaning like everyone else. I live in Washington D.C and have lived in a few places around the world. I love to dance, laugh, have dinner with grandmas, learn about people’s history, make art, and make friends.

For Summer 2023 I’m celebrating the ending of my most recent learning journey by traveling through the Americas with my backpack and my friend. Right now, Colombia, Costa Rica, and Guatemala are staples on the list. We will figure everything else out on the way. I’m looking to hangout and chill.

👏🏾 We're all a piece of a massive puzzle, rugged, yet fitting. So I can’t wait to meet you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that talking with strangers is good fun, plus I've created some of the best friendships ever through meeting people on Couchsurfing. I also enjoy staying with locals to get a real experience of the places I visit.
