I’d like to think I’m pretty laid back. I love to cook epic vegetarian feasts and go for geocaching bike rides. I love the outdoors and have a mild obsession with waterfalls. One day I want to camp behind a waterfall, maybe in a hammock.

I recently moved to Istanbul to do the crazy thing of marrying my awesome Turkish husband.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet awesome people and experience the world to the fullest! I want to have conversations with people I wouldn’t get the opportunity to meet otherwise.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
