I'm an American recently moved to Istanbul.

I'm passionate about nature and volunteering with children with disabilities.

I love hiking and the outdoors, and I love the beach. I also like good food, laughing, talking, and enjoying other people's company. I like to party but I'm definitely not a party animal.

I believe there is a beauty in cultural differences because they let us see the things we take for granted with different eyes.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I'm on couchsurfing because I want to share cultural experiences and I believe that the best experiences can be had through meeting and experiencing them with a local.
