About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience.

One of my favorite things about traveling is meeting new people. I graduated from the University of Washington where I am majored in International Studies with a minor in Global Health. I love trying new food, and can never get enough music in my life--whether producing or listening. I enjoy volunteering in my spare time and helping others in anyway possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have stayed in many different hostels, crashed on couches, and woke up on floors. I've also developed relationships similarly through Airbnb with apartment rentals and exchanges.

Interests

Skiing, climbing, biking, hiking, jam sessions, camping...and a good read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumping off a 45 foot waterfall in the Cloud Forest of Mindo, Ecuador, swimming with freshwater dolphins, and riding in a packed-full VW bus up the coast of Ecuador to a small rasta surf village with awesome people--ALL IN ONE DAY.
