Hello hello,
I’m Emily. I recently quit my job in food access in the US to travel, which I’m doing for all the usual reasons people do: to experience and explore the world, to see where the adventure takes me, to find myself and to discover and grow a passion that positively contributes to the world.

I am looking for a place to sleep and a genuine connection with other travels. I am not looking for a hook up so please don’t try.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Make friends and connections, maybe have a good laugh, enjoy a visit, connect with a place through local experience

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time I rolled my sleeping bag so it fit in the stuff sack without a fuss

Teach, Learn, Share

200hr YTT maybe I can practice on you, learn the local fauna and forage something for you, cook with you, but mostly good for a story or a chat about life or poetry or philosophy or how the light falls just so on the leaves outside

Gratitude, some good fun facts, a couple good stories. I am happy to do your dishes!
