About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see as many places in the World as possible and blog about my journeys

ABOUT ME

I have a fascination with different cultures and am constantly researching to find out more about them. I don’t eat animals and I want to save them all. 💜 Let’s talk literature and time travel!

PHILOSOPHY

Create and preserve the image of your choice

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

New to this, but willing to host when I can!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been doing a little couch surfing in Europe and it’s been amazing!

Interests

Music is a big part of my life. I play guitar and write songs, go to shows often and love supporting local bands. I'm extremely committed to my writing as a poet, and also write short films. I paint, shop, drink absurd amounts of coffee, and go to movies constantly. I love to be in nature always.
