I'm into hiking, diving, discovering things off the beaten path, meeting cool people, and enjoying the excitement of being in new places often. I love reading and spending time in cafes as much as I love hiking in and photography of natural areas.
Sustainable living and vegan food are my jam- happy to share! Also, I love using yoga as a way to reflect while on the go and I’m down to practice yoga with anyone!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My brother and I are planning a Europe backpacking trip for July-- he is graduating as a student with loan debt (I told him that taking a backpacking trip instead of settling down with a career straight away is the better route to enjoying life). He’s a computer science major and I’m a marine bio grad so we can help with any computer issues and nature inquiries!
I'm working as a teacher in Thailand which is an awesome gig but that money doesn't go far in European countries. So if we can explore Europe (my brother's first chance to do so), hike, and have new experiences by joining Couchsurfers and meeting likeminded people- this will be the most epic way to backpack in Europe!!!
