About Me

I'm very easy-going and I love to laugh. I grew up in a very multicultural city so I am open to all cultures and I love to exchange stories of our past. My experience living in Haiti taught me to live simply.

PHILOSOPHY

"There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler only who is foreign."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is an awesome way to make new friends that you would never have gotten to meet otherwise. It also makes travelling more memorable and creates more stories to share with friends and family back home.

Interests

Adventure, food, baby goats, different cultures, astronomy, sustainability, poverty alleviation, international development, etc.

  • dining
  • traveling
  • astronomy

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I really can't pick just one. These are some highlights of some of my trips. You can tell that I love to travel for adventure!
- Rolled down a hill in a plastic bubble in the Philippines (zorb!)
- Went parasailing in the Swiss Alps
- Relaxed in a hot spring in Japan
- Held a huge albino burmese python around my neck in the Philippines
- Stayed in a village with the Maasai tribe in Kenya - accepted as part of their tribe!
- Hitchhiked and couchsurfed across French Guiana
- Witnessed wild leatherback sea turtles laying eggs along French Guiana's coast during nesting season in the middle of the night
