Hello!

I am originally from Detroit, MI, but I've been traveling across the globe and living abroad for the last 11 years.

Being outdoors, surrounded by nature, camping, looking at the stars and being out in the water. I also love exploring cities and seeing all the history, culture, architecture, food and people.

Going to concerts and festivals; anything that will broaden my horizons and introduce me to new experiences. Going on random adventures and traveling while meeting new and interesting people.

Creating events that bring friends and community together. I have been in a theatre group over the past 4 years and love watching an idea become something that people can enjoy and bond over. I also like to get my friends engaged in different interactive projects I organize and create.

PHILOSOPHY

Live it, do it, we're here, enjoy it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been hosting on and off for 11 years in Detroit, Medellin, Phnom Penh and Austin. I've been able to surf around the globe, and have met so many amazing people. I also have had the chance to go to many meet ups and cooking exchanges.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed, hosted, traveled, and met up with fellow Couch Surfers. I love this site, what it has to offer, and the great souls I get to meet.

I cooked on an organic farm for 100's people so I have some good recipes I am willing to share and cook.
