About Me

****The way y'all defile CS and use it as a dating app is disgusting, disheartening, and embarassing. I do not respond to men who do this.****

I traveled solo for a year around the Mediterranean, volunteered in Peace Corps in South Africa (KZN), worked at a crisis hotline, homeless shelter, and in domestic violence and bereavement. Currently getting my masters right now.

Warm, curious, easygoing. Believer of fate and signs. Interested in minimalism--both materialistically and spiritually.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just trying to spread some love and joy in this crazy world!

Interests

When I travel, aside from getting to know the people who live there, I like to hitchhike, visit libraries, and see Brutalist architecture. I really love scuba diving and being in the water.
