Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couch surfing is an amazing way to experience a new city and get to know the locals. I love the idea of having friends all over the world, and leaving my comfort zone behind. I have only had great experiences so far.
Hotels and hostels can get expensive and couch surfing is a great alternative.

Interests

I love to hike, climb, surf, dance (badly) and do yoga. Other passions of mine are the written word, cooking/baking delicious and healthy food, naps, and meeting new people.
