ABOUT ME

I'm a self proclaimed travelholic like most people here and eager to both learn from and influence those around me. I'm very outgoing, always up for an adventure, and I love meeting new people so I look forward to getting together and sharing experiences! I don't like routine and I'm here to make the most out of life through traveling , making new friends, and seeing and learning as much as possible.

CURRENT MISSION

30 countries before 30. Only six more to go!

PHILOSOPHY

Pura Vida

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to open and enhance my mind through the beautiful people and places I encounter. I learn the most through traveling and I'm passionate about having the opportunity to broaden my horizons and see the world through others. Every person who I have met while traveling has taught me something and positively impacted my life in some way and I'm looking to return the favor. I truly believe Couchsurfing is the best way to experience a city, country, and/or culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Half Dome at sunset in Yosemite National Park. The most beautiful thing I have ever experienced and I've never felt closer to the world and nature.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm willing to teach English and Spanish to anyone who is looking to learn. I have a background in digital marketing (websites, SEO, social media) so I can share my experience with that. I'm also willing to teach anyone how to make the most delicious calorie filled ice cream cake in the world!

I'm always eager to learn. That's one of the main reasons I travel. You can never have too much knowledge especially when it comes to what you know of the world and others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm willing to share anything I have to offer! I enjoy good conversation especially with many different thoughts and opinions, so I would love to share some stimulating conversations. I love food and new recipes so we can share meals as well!
