Hi! My name is Kenyetta Gabrielle but I go by Kiwii. I am currently a college student at East Carolina University studying Cinematic Arts and Media Productions. I would like to become a freelance photographer and be able to work on independent films around the verse.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I heard of couchsurfing from looking at online sites for easy travel. Since I was younger I have dreamed of traveling the world with my camera. I want my adventures to lead me through my career and I want my lens to be able to truly show my perspective as an artist.

Interests

I have interests in photography and cinematography. If you know any beautiful spots in your area that I can photograph I would really love to go! However when I was younger I loved to write and read and I was told by a beautiful soul to pursue it once more. So I want to take time to explore and then project my experiences on paper again.

I have always loved the idea of traveling and I want my life to be an adventure full of complex and dynamic people! I grew up in North Carolina and just recently went on my first trip abroad to Xi'an China! I realized that I am in love with being on a plane after my first 23 hour flight and now I just want to keep going as much as I can!

My twinflame and I practice yoga and meditation. We would like to pursue a spiritual journey after college and travel the world to do it. I want to warm up my couchsurfing skills until then! We want to try WWOOFing also to learn different skills such a farming and working with people from different countries.

I have a love for anime as well. I am not an OTAKU, but I enjoy watching psychological or horror anime that make you think and have interesting concepts such as the Bakemonogatari series, LAIN, and Tokyo Ghoul...
