I am currently a full time grad student earning a master’s degree in mental health counseling at Alfred University. I most recently lived in Syracuse, NY where I found a lot of awesome things to do and people to hang out with! While I’m on breaks, I stay with a friend so I can’t currently host. BUT I would love to meet up with travelers! I would take them to Funk n Waffles, expose them to November Project, some great yoga classes, other fun live music venues, open mic, live theatre, and much more!

I am not super athletic but I’m interested in hiking, running, and fitness. People often feel free to open up to me and I love having deep conversations. I enjoy connecting with authentic people. I am most interested in visiting cities where I may find conscious people who value many of the things I do.

I have a chemical sensitivity and need to avoid many fragranced products. I make my own natural, scent-free products like deodorant, laundry detergent, and use many fragrance-free items. I try to eat as unprocessed and organic as possible. I’d like to find friends who are similarly inclined!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’d love to travel, learn new things, meet new people, and perhaps find a city where I could move when I’m done with school.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I competed in a charity event by preparing a salsa number. My partner and I won 4th place out of 11 pairs!

Teach, Learn, Share

I taught dance for several years before going back to school. Mainly tap and jazz. I have taught some ballet, modern, and ballroom.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make my own scent-free laundry detergent. I can whip you up a batch, but probably can’t fly with it. :(

If you’re a musician, we’ll be singing together! If you’re a dancer, let’s jam. If you’re into philosophy, let’s have amazing discussions. I don’t smoke or do drugs. I do drink on occasion but getting wasted isn’t my thing. I will be a quiet, respectful guest who is happy to spend time with you and housemates but also content to be alone. If you recommend cool places to go, I will likely wander off and explore on my own making new pals wherever.
