I am an American studying in New Zealand for 6 months!! As a photographer it is a passion of mine to travel the world and meet life long friends from different countries along the way.

I live for long day hikes and prefer mountains over the beach. I value meeting new people and immersing myself in different cultures.

I love animals, tea, and any breakfast food. I share people's stories through my camera and it would be a pleasure to to capture yours!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live in a homestay and know how valuable it is to stay with locals. You get a complete different experience staying with a local than on your own. You can always learn something new from anyone and it would be amazing to learn something new from a local host!
