Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy the most out of every day. Whether that means spending 3 hours drinking coffee and chatting with a new friend or cliff jumping into the icy waters of Lake Superior, I focus on being purposeful with my life.
ABOUT ME
There is something exhilarating about traveling. I like learning about how different people live their lives, what are their passions, what their values are. Those times when I am traveling seems like life is so rich with new experiences, sights, ideas, and friends.
PHILOSOPHY
Attitude is there difference between an adventure or an ordeal.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfing is INCREDIBLE. If I am fortunate enough to find a host, it has been incredible experiencing a city through the eyes of a local, learning what is unique and special and traditional. I love hosting as well. I have enjoyed hosting surfers in Detroit from around the US and world. It truly is a cultural exchange.
I have couchsurfed in Pittsburgh, PA; Leipzig, Germany; Winston-Salem, NC; Savannah, GA; and St. Louis, MO. Both Leipzig and St. Louis were true couchsurfing exchanges. I hosted them and they hosted me back.
Interests
I love living in Detroit. I love the energy and community involvement of Detroit. The city is constantly changing, and it has been fun to be here to watch it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I hiked the Inca Trail for 4 days through the Andes! It was one of the most awe-inspiring moments of my life.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd like to leave this as an open ended answer. I think it forms to the person and what each person brings to the table to teach, learn, or share.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I like to share life experiences, like finding out what each other are passionate about and why. I also know how to cook some mean pastas from when I studied in Italy...
