CURRENT MISSION
To see as much of the world as possible while writing about it! Also, to spread as much kindness and compassion throughout the globe as possible. I believe that travel is the bridge to human acceptance and peace. Currently I am working on my first travel memoir.

ABOUT ME
Hello there! I am a laid back, considerate, always-curious travel writer. As a Latin Americanist, I speak Spanish and (rusty) Brazilian Portuguese. Some of my favorites: animals, art, vegan food, and witty conversation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've used couchsurfing before in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. Overall, it’s been a super positive experience! I'm always excited to meet more people out on the road.

Interests

I love to read, write, listen to music, walk, travel, and surround myself with positive people/animals. I don't shy away from political debates and really dig wildlife. Also, I'd like to take up painting again.
