I have been fully vaccinated + a booster :)

Lover of new places, people, and adventures. Couchsurfing was the foundation of my three-month travels throughout Europe in 2019. I’m connecting again with the community as I just moved to Seattle. I would love to make some Seattle friends and am also able to host now! I love the CS life for all the amazing people you meet and connections you make. Hopefully I’ll get to say that whoever is reading this was one of them.

Puedo hablar un poco español pero no soy perfecto y necesito practicar mucho mas :)

Into painting and art in general, singing, creative writing, climbing, horseback riding, taking photos, cooking & baking, warm weather, hikes to waterfalls and rivers, and pretty beaches.

Always up for a good thoughtful conversation. When’s the last time someone opened up your mind?

Animal lover, I have a cat at home and I rode horses + grew up with all sorts of pets as a kid.

I’m very interested in sustainable and green living. We only have only planet, let’s not waste it. If you have any tips to share for better ways to travel and live sustainably, I’m all ears!

I’d rather talk about your views on the world and your beliefs about humanity than the weather and what we ate for lunch. We never really stop learning unless we close ourselves off to new opportunities limit ourselves to small talk. I’m an open book, ask me anything, teach me something, and I’d hope I could return the favor!

Come watch the sunset with me?
