About Me

Cat lover. Yoga enthusiast. Avid traveler. I’m originally from NY, moved to the Netherlands in 2015 and the to San Francisco in 2018 where I met my partner, Scott who is an LA native. Love to explore new places and meet new people. I’m about to start grad school back in the Netherlands to study cognitive psychology. I love helping people and learning about the uniqueness of the human experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My partner and I are roadtripping around the SW USA. We started in the San Francisco Bay Area and will be traveling indefinitely before I start grad school in the Netherlands. We are car camping and couch surfing, trying to keep costs low.

Interests

I love doing outdoor things, exploring new places, travelling, and getting to know incredible people. I'm really into health and fitness. I try to take any opportunity I can to do something new and different.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like indie folk music, meditative, trans, and a lot of weird stuff. For movies and books I like sci fi , fantasy, comedy, and a good ole fashion hallmark movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to another country without speaking the language or knowing anyone.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach yoga and meditation, as well as life coach. Happy to share some perspectives and give a yoga lesson. Or if you want to learn Dutch I can help you with that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you how to say hello in a lot of languages and tell you weird cultural references you probably don’t care about. My boyfriend is a great cook. I have a lot of travel stories and love to give recommendations.
