About Me

Hi!

I grew up on Galveston Island in the Gulf Coast of Mexico. I was a competitive surfer and stand up paddler when I was younger. I also was an ocean lifeguard. These pursuits really made me fall in love with being in nature.

As I've gotten older, I have been pursuing two bachelor degrees: one in photojournalism and one in peace studies. In college, I have gotten into rock climbing.

Recently, I converted a mini-van to travel the US and Canada in while doing journalism and exploring stories related to climate change.

I am currently studying at the Danish School of Media and Journalism.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel often and think this is a great way to meet people from the local area while saving money :)

Interests

Reading, plants, yoga, brewing kombucha, surfing, rock climbing, camping, hiking, photography, film, philosophy, curiosity

Music, Movies, and Books

What a question!! Ah!!

Well, more recently I have been reading a lot about how technology and our brains interact. I really like reading so this is a hard question.

A classic movie I love would be 180 Degrees South.

For music, I like folk, indie, and alternative mostly. I'm a big fan of lyrics that have thought behind them and beats you can dance to. Right now I am listening to Tash Sultana as I type :D
