I am a 22 year old finding my way in life with a big heart and feet that itch to explore. I spent three years at Ithaca College as a journalism major, and I love to write. I recently got married to my husband Alex, who is from Australia. We are dedicated to living a minimalistic, sustainable, and mindful lifestyle. We hope to someday be able to live without money entirely. I am dedicating my life to addressing climate change and trying to bring as much peace and love to the world as one human possibly can.

“We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.” ~Joseph Campbell

After spending 5 months walking across the United States in 2014, I'm convinced that most everyone in the world are just friends I haven't met yet. Are you one of them? I can't wait to find out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel, I don't have a lot of money, and I like to make new friends and experience new things!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Between May and October of 2014, I walked from New Mexico to Pennsylvania with the Great March for Climate Action!

Between June 2016 and February 2017, I lived in a 2000 Chevy Express van and traveled all over the country from coast to coast. I ended up at the Standing Rock protest camp in North Dakota in the middle of a bitter winter. This is where I met and married my husband, Alex.
