CURRENT MISSION

Learn Spanish and spend time outdoors.

ABOUT ME

I´m a free-spirit and a wanderer. I feel most at peace when I´m close to nature. I love hiking, sea kayaking, and picnics in beautiful spots. I enjoy food too much. I love the whole process: growing it, cooking it, and most rewardingly eating great dinners with good company (and plenty of vino). I recently graduated university and flew to Spain to walk the Camino de Santiago. I met so many gorgeous people and traveled for over 8 months. NOw i'm back in Houston and a love being a homebody.

PHILOSOPHY

Every day´s a good day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I´m a traveller and not a tourist. I am on the road now to meet people and share experiences. Why is it that the coolest people I meet tend to be travelers? I love how open people are when they´re on the road. I say let´s pop open a bottle of wine, put on some good tunes, and make the most of every evening.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I CSed a few times in Europe and now I want to give back! Some of the CSing was magical. Strangers became my family. I hope to show people the many hidden gems of Houston.

Interests

Hiking, biking, swimming, jogging. Beautiful places. Sunsets into the water. Boasting about the greatness of Texas. I love music. Good friends. Cooking. Old friends and new friends. Spontaneous adventures.
