MISSION

human connection! learning through experience, staying humble, being present.
Couchsurfing is an incredible tool to establish life-long connections across the world. . . quite powerful!

ABOUT ME

I'm a completely sprite, witty as hell, and live to make people smile. I'm pretty balanced between introversion and extroversion (I love to go out and see people and lights, but need to recluse after)
In 2014 I traveled in South America for 6 months alone, and it was a very liberating experience!
Solo traveling is very difficult, and very addicting. In 2016, I spent the money that I had saved up to by a car instead on a 2 month trip through thailand, cambodia and myanmar.
My next adventure will be hawaii (volunteer through WWOOF), Australia (I got my 1 year working visa) and New Zealand.

I am interested in learning about different cultures, history, art, music, relationships, sustainable living, farming, and growing as a young person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first used couchsurfing in June 2014 when I was in Peru, and I went on to use it in Bolivia and Argentina as well. I had amazing experiences doing this, and now I live with 2 room mates that are highly active with couch surfing, and our house has couch surfers staying from all over the world at an almost constant basis.
