About Me

CURRENT MISSION

save enough money to explore Japan more, and figure out what comes next!

ABOUT ME

My feet are beyond itchy, they burn, especially about month 5 in 1 place.

I love being active outdoors, going surfing, hiking, to parks, etc.

PHILOSOPHY

If not now, when? Take advantage of everything you can now, because there are no guarantees for later.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've only ever hosted, answered questions about the area, and surfed a few times. I've never attended an event anywhere.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I tried couch surfing in Argentina, but I guess they get too many requests in those spectacular areas. I was successful with 1 person who showed me around Bariloche, which was great, because I finally got an Argentinian perspective! It can be tough when you're staying in hostels to meet people from the actual country you're visiting, rather than just fellow travelers like yourself.

Interests

in no particular order: I love being active! I do whatever's available in the area-sports, outdoor rec stuff, ultimate frisbee, kayaking, yoga, trail running, cycling, hiking, surfing... Also, reading, traveling, meeting interesting people, learning about new cultures.
