ABOUT ME

I'm a happy, outgoing graphic designer from Rockport, MA (small town one hour North of Boston). I've lived in Italy and Brazil and have traveled around Europe and N/S America. I love animals, music/dance/art, and learning about new cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

I live the life I love and I love the life I live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed in Aruba and I helped host a few couch surfers while I was living in Brazil. It's fun to go out with other travelers and see my location from another person's perspective.

Interests

Dancing salsa, meeting new people, practicing other languages, taking care of animals, and making art.
