About Me

Avid traveler and adventure addict. I spent half of my adulthood living in the mindset that life was about working hard and saving up. I finally realized what's the point of working so hard and making a living If you're not going to enjoy it. I've had the good fortune of being able to travel often as a kid. As an adult solo traveler I'd love to connect with people along the way who the share the same spirit and passion for experiencing new things and meeting new people.

I have a bunch of great, likeminded friends who enjoy traveling as much as I do and convinced me to give CS a shot. I'm new to the community but have really enjoyed learning and getting myself more involved within it. Hoping to meet some quality people through CS and my travel experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy traveling solo and would love to connect with fellow coachsurfers and locals along the way. Some of the best experiences I've had traveling have been when I've met and connected with other travelers or locals, and had the opportunity to really experience the culture of place outside of the typical tourist destinations.

I'm a people person and enjoy learning about a culture through the people who live it and exchanging life stories.
