I'm an event planner, educator, crafter/aspiring artist, feminist and animal-loving foodie living in Austin, Texas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love learning about new places through its food, art, architecture and music. When traveling, I'm seeking great food, local hangouts, art, parks, hiking trails and friendly people. It's important to me to connect with locals to experience the more authentic side of a destination.

Interests

I seem to pick up new interests all the time! I enjoy cooking, painting, drawing, crafting, reading, hiking, camping, volunteering, social justice, teaching, learning, talking about social change and working to dismantle oppression, and other things like that...
