I moved to Chiang Mai, Thailand back in November of 2018 to attend a TEFL program. After the program, I stuck around for a couple months, trying to figure out what I really wanted. I decided to not teach, leave Chiang Mai, and travel about. I’ve explored some of SEA and now making my way towards Eastern Europe by way of Bahrain and Turkey, slowly circumnavigating the globe back to California....In addition to Europe, I hope to make my way to Morocco, Colombia, Nicaragua, Cuba and a cross-country trek back to the Golden State, visiting friends and family along the way.

Most recently from the Santa Cruz/Bay Area of California.

I enjoy the outdoors, movement in many forms, personal development, animals, hanging around water and having time to reset.

Light drinker, heavy dancer. Don't smoke. I’m very sensitive to cigarette smoke and can’t be around it. :(

I try to eat healthy-ish but love carbs and goodies. Not a vegan/vegetarian but not a super heavy meat eater either.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to meet some cool people while out traveling the world. A couple people I’ve met during my travels have spoken highly of Couchsurfing and hope to use it as a way to stay as well. I hope to return the favor when I am eventually settled back in California.

I enjoy good people, great conversations...basically connecting with other humans.

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds - classic rock, dance, house/EDM, pop, R&B...I'll dance to just about anything.

Love Disney - Alice in Wonderland is among one of my all time faves...Pulp Fiction, True Romance, Sliding Doors, Indiana Jones (not number 4), Major League, Parenthood....

Favorite book so far is Clan of the Cave Bear. Enjoy personal development books and have read mostly non-fiction for the last several years. Never stop growing....

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very considerate guest - neat, tidy and quiet. I enjoy conversation but also enjoy a lot of quiet time. My friends describe me as caring, funny and personable.
