I'm simple: laughter, food, dance, and conversation, make me tick. Each one is so essential to happiness.

I've been fortunate enough that every country I've visited has provided me with people who bring those elements into my life and I really couldn't ask for anything more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because the best way to get to know a place, is with a local.

Interests

I could dance until the end of time and talk until the sun comes up. I love capturing candid moments around me ... IG 📸: insertfakedeepcaptionaqui

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: anything with percussion, from afrobeat to kizomba to soca to salsa and everything in between.

Books: I tend towards African diaspora writers and non-fiction because real life is often more riveting than fiction.

Movies ... stand up comedy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen: the Pyramids of Giza up close.

Done: My friend and I decided to eat our way through Italy so we rented a car and for two weeks, we stopped in specific cities and comatosed on Italian cuisine. I could never have imagined I would venture out like that.

Teach, Learn, Share

The lightest, most important thing you can pack on any trip, is an open mind.

If you're ever in town, I dance a wicked bachata and would love to share my favorite dance spots with you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A meal and some laughter.
