Overview
About Me
My name is Lily, Im 28 and I left my job in tech in the Bay Area last year to travel the world (cliché, I know!). I've made my way from Iceland ->Turkey -> Cyprus -> Egypt -> Greece -> Italy -> Morocco -> Poland. I went home to the Bay Area and spent several months there before returning abroad to Vietnam, India and Nepal. Nepal changed my life and I ended up staying there for five months.
I love to travel off the beaten path, especially after having experienced countries from the comfort of a tour bus in the past. I live for the people I meet and the random events that happen while one is traveling.
I hope to some day be able to have a career where I can travel more than just two weeks or the year or what is given to you from a typical '9-5' job.
* Just as a note I have had so many amazing experiences through couch surfing and have made lovely friends but especially w/ 'couch surfing hangout' please don't message me trying to use this as a dating app. and message me with those intentions...I am looking for friendship and genuine connections!
