My name is Danielle, I was born in Huntington, New York but raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I am a frequent traveler and have visited 26 countries, mostly in Europe and Asia. I like reading, skiing, hiking, rock climbing, cooking, mountain biking, kayaking and being outside. I spent several years working in marketing and events before becoming a tour guide last year. I am passionate about travel and enjoy sharing it with others! In my free time I am also an English tutor online. I hope to meet you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel frequently and enjoy meeting new people. I think the best way to learn about culture is by hanging out with locals, sharing a traditional meal and visiting new places.

Teach, Learn, Share

One thing I am very passionate about is cooking. My family has Italian heritage and we love to eat. I would love to learn how to cook one of your local dishes and in turn share a recipe of my own!
