About Me

I'm a restless soul in a perpetual state of wanderlust. There's so much to see and do and so little time!

I consider myself a laidback, friendly, fun-loving person with a great sense of humour (I love sarcasm and crude jokes - check out stand up from Ms. Pat, my favourite comedian, to see what kind of humor I like). I'm definitely a goofy and outgoing person at heart. I find that the best people to chat with are intelligent, open-minded, adventurous and possess a nomadic spirit and insatiable lust for life.

If I end up staying at your place, just know that I am clean, organized and respectful of people's space! I offer the same respect to people that I expect of others if they were to stay with me.

Check out my blog (it's been on a long hiatus but I'd like to start it up again): boundlesshumanblog.com

P.S. I'm queer / lesbian and I have a girlfriend so if that bothers you we definitely shouldn't meet up. If you're a dude looking for a hookup or romance don't bother - too many of y'all on here think it's a dating app 🤣🤣

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, discover the world one bit at a time and enjoy new experiences that stretch the confines of my mind.

Interests

muay thai. mma. astronomy. spontaneously beatboxing. reading. pondering the meaning of life and incomprehensible vastness of the universe. i love a good party and dancing like a mad woman. but I also take dance classes now, not just freestyling at the club lol. accents. self-education and the constant pursuit of knowledge. video games. film photography (i'm a total amateur though). spending way too much money at restaurants. being in nature. via ferrata. i love to write.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

7-week long teaching internship in Lisbon about global issues and development in high schools. It gave me a different perspective on life in general and the world around me. I could go on, but we'd be here all day. Let's just say it was a truly gratifying experience.

Fun fact: I've been an extra in two made-for-TV movies.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to moonwalk (kind of) and muay thai. You can teach me Spanish and French.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Insightful conversations and my personal brand of humour....whatever that's worth.
