I am a Southern United States transplant who has made the East Coast her home for the last 6 years. I am now taking a year to travel and work on international projects, as well as do some freelance marketing and design. I love to be outdoors and hiking. I love yoga, taking photos, cooking for friends, making cocktails, and reading a good book.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling through South America and Southeast Asia this year. I want to stay with local people so I can make new friends, see cities through experienced eyes, and explore food, culture and customs.
