I live for unexpected chats with strangers, straying from the itinerary, finding mind-blowing desserts, and hearing peoples’ stories.

When I'm not on the road, I'm a designer, amateur photographer and I run a travel group bringing people on trips around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet amazing souls and share a good joke. I've been hosted by fantastic people in Africa, Europe and the U.S. Headed to Cuba for the second time in May 2016, if anyone wants to meet up!

Interests

Loves: photography, the outdoors, finding hole-in-the-wall food spots, adventure sports, bikram yoga, pretending that I can dance, small towns, coastal cities, good food, and great conversation.
