Overview
About Me
Hello wonderful people! I am a professional ballet dancer in with the dream of touring and performing around the world on a professional dance company. I recently moved to Berlin, Germany to pursue this dream and to learn more about different art forms/cultures. I am a lover of learning, art (can you tell? 😂), music, people, culture, history, food, and nature and can almost always be found dancing/being silly. I always travel with my best friend Rain who has a similar thirst for knowledge and love of life.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Myself and my best friend Rain couchsurfed across Europe for 5 weeks in the summer of 2017 and made friends, connections, and memories that we will have for life. Couchsurfing can be one of the most beautiful ways to connect with people around the world because of the mutual trust, respect, love for life, generosity and hospitality that you must show when opening your home to guests. I want to give back to hosts when I stay in any way I can (cooking, listening, massage, etc...) and I want to host people that renew my love of the cities I live in. Bottom line I LOVE PEOPLE
