Overview
About Me
After traveling back and forth throughout Europe the past two years, it’s time to move on to new lands lol I work remotely (when I'm not bartending) to support my travel habits and I have a 5y/o Yorkie that I consider my sidekick! I have a love for people and learning...and learning people! Even though my background is in Mathematics, I have a passion for the study of human behavior. Truly fascinating!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I stared out on CS bc I planned a European tour in Sept/Oct/Nov 2017, and wanted to experience each destination as authentically as I could. and my travel friends have said CS is the best way to do it ! But in just a few short months I have already met some amazing people thru CS and can't wait to finally put a physical greeting with the endless conversations already had here. CSrs are a pretty awesome bunch of people (for the most part lol) and can't wait to meet even more! UPDATE!! Just one month in to my 3-month travel, staying in hostels, AirBnB, and CS hosts, and I have to say my best experiences have been through CouchSurfing. I've been able to have family-style 5-course Sicilian meals, taste ricotta fresh from the farm, snorkeling for octopus, meditating in Delphi Ruins, explore hidden secret keyholes in Rome, and walk the beach in peace away from tourists. I have not found this during my stays in hostels or AirBnB. The money is not an issue to me, I would pay for Couchsurfing just to experience what I have w my CS hosts! What truly unforgettable experiences I have had. And am forever grateful to all who use this platform with love and an open heart!
