As I'm finding my way through this life, I'm trying to embrace the things that pass me by. I love adventures and am comfortable enough in my own skin that I can do so on my own. I haven't seen too much of the world and have been thinking lately of how I could change that. Unfortunately I can't fund a year of travelling around the world so I'm going to try to take small bites, one at a time. I love the idea of seeing the reality of a place and getting my hands dirty, spending time with the locals and discovering the secret spots.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I appreciate affordable travelling and I love the idea of getting to know a place with people who are familiar with it and happy to share their local perspective! I'm not one to go crazy about touristy things but might be swayed if it seems interesting enough. Building relationships is important to me and what better and more exciting way to do so than through couchsurfing?!
Although I am unable to host in my current situation, I'd love to open up my home some day and do the same to other couchsurfers coming to my city!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven't done too many crazy adventurous things but a couple years ago I bought my brothers Vespa off of him and it has never been a regret! I get incredibly giddy and happy and proud whenever I take it out for a ride. I'm even hoping to start taking it on some epic road trips sometime soon.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a fairly extroverted individual and would enjoy the opportunity of getting to know each other, discuss life, and share moments if that's something they'd like to do too! I like to dabble with cooking and baking but am in no way a expert - I mostly just love coming together with people over good food and drink. Music has often proved as a great way of encouraging good fellowship and would love to discover new bands to enjoy as well as share some of my own favs. I appreciate artistic creativity and like to try to be my own personal output with various things.
