I am a gypsy at heart. I think travel is essential to growth and being better as a person. I love to travel to different countries and immerse myself in the culture. I love hosting travelers as well. I have a love of food, good music, great conversation, the beach, the outdoors, photography and traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to connect with other travelers. If not hosting or being hosted, just meeting up in different cities around the world.
