Hi there! My name is Isabel, or Izzy if you prefer. I started traveling the world with my youth choir in 2010 and since then have dreamed of dropping everything and expatriating to a new country. So that’s what I’ve done!! I’ve lived in Koblenz, Germany since July 2018 while doing an FÖJ (volunteering in sustainability) and now that I’m back in the states I’m in need of adventure. Right now seeking inspiration to live a creative, open, and free life, though at the moment I don’t really know what that means for me! I’d like to spend relaxed time together or if you want let’s go on a hunt for cool spots in the city. I can also be pretty introverted, goes both ways :) ps get ready for puns!!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I find nothing more perfect than a community for travelers that want to meet locals, hosts that want to learn about other cultures, and a warm, welcoming environment that just can't be found everywhere.

兴趣

I love the outdoors, healthy plant-based eating (sometimes), journaling, all kinds of music and movies, sustainable living, singing in choirs, interested in getting into more sports and adventure.

• painting
• opera
• hiking
• teaching
• choir
• cooking and baking
• waldorf education

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I was spontaneously given a speaking line in a Melissa McCarthy movie and got to act alongside her on my very first day on a movie set! She is so kind, professional, and was basically an acting coach for this young confused background actor.
