CURRENT MISSION

Exploring new countries and meeting locals to get a better understanding of their culture and lives

ABOUT ME

I'm quiet until I get to know you, I like to explore the world and meet new people, and I know a little about a lot of things - but not a lot about anything.

I grew up in the USA, lucky to live in Galápagos Islands for 2 months and now living in New Zealand.

PHILOSOPHY

The world would be a better place if everyone accepted and encouraged diversity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Whenever I travel, I try to connect with CSers to get a more local view of that country. I´ve made some really good friends along the way.

Interests

currently my main hobby is Japanese taiko drumming - also love to dance (salsa, swing and tango mostly - but have tried many other styles)
