I am a travel writer, blogger, and photographer traveling around the globe in search of adventure. I love to meet new people and have been Couchsurfing for quite a few years now!

I'm from California originally but have been living in Perth for the past few years. I am now living in Suva, Fiji!

***I am happy to hangout, but cannot host***

I don't take life too seriously, love to share stories, and learn all about new cultures.

HOBBIES

Kitesurfing, surfing, hiking, freediving, scuba diving, and more! I am always up for a physical challenge, so if there's a sport or adventure you've always wanted to try but haven't -- I'd make a good buddy for that!

PHILOSOPHY

"All good things are wild and free" -- Thoreau

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed in Europe and used to host people in my apartment in Los Angeles.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I've had a wonderful experience CouchSurfing and hosting :) I've met nothing but interesting and kind people, and am so thankful to see the cities I've gone to with my hosts as a guide.

I would love to learn German and improve on my Spanish. Those who eat my food probably think I could improve on my cooking as well.
