About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Seeing the great wide word!

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and I'm very interested in other cultures. I'm easygoing and have a passion for good people and great experiences. Love to get outdoors and explore, but am super happy playing board games with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Everyone on the planet is in possession of the most interesting story you'll ever hear. Everyone has value. Life's an adventure and everyday is a new chapter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm trying to get authentic experiences from the places I travel and to meet interesting people wherever I go. I think everyone's got a story and I love to hear it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted couchsurfers in the past and I've been one myself. I think it's a great idea and really proves that the world is full of great people!

Interests

I'm into cooking, laughing, experiencing new things, hiking, tennis, singing, swimming, dancing, otters, hearing stories and telling them. I love playing games, I'm totally a kid at heart.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing.... Well, I took off one day on a road trip around Korea on my scooter. I drove the perimeter of a country and got to experience things that I never thought I would. It was amazing, with the wind in my hair and the great unknown in front of me. Absolutely loved it, will happily share the story over a drink or something.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've lived in the USA, Korea, and Hong Kong. I've loved, lived, lost, and laughed. I love to cook and would happily share recipes with anyone. I'm a freak for games, so I'm up for an exchange. I'm just happy to make new friends.
