Overview
About Me
I'm originally from the US, lived in New York City and worked in the corporate world for a few years, then quit that job for one that let me travel everywhere from Nigeria to Mongolia to Guyana and back. Now I'm currently on a 13 month solo trip around the world, starting in Singapore and ending in Sweden (well, technically at home after I attend the Burning Man festival in August 2016!!). I'm a freelance writer, blogger, and life coach who helps other people my age change their careers, quit their jobs, find their dream jobs, travel the world, face their spiritual realities, and incorporate tiny bits of philosophy for better everyday living. Check out my blog at www.lifebefore30.com.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing always becomes my favorite memory of any country where I've been blessed enough to host or be hosted.
