Helloooo! 👋 Nice to meet you!

I grew up in the United States and have been traveling nearly full-time since 2013. I have studied and worked in more than ten countries and think the best way to get to learn about a culture is with locals.🌎

Most recently, I lived in Chennai, India and am currently on a backpacking trip until the end of 2023.

I enjoy traveling slowly and rarely do my research about places before arriving. I've found that some of the best adventures are the spontaneous and unexpected ones! I've done the majority of my traveling through job and study opportunities and am hoping to make connections through couchsurfing.

I love meeting new people, practicing Spanish, going out, trying new foods, spending time in nature or on rooftops. I am very easygoing and always ready for an adventure!

See you on the road! ✨🌼🌞😸✌️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe the best way to experience a new place is with locals! I love building community, making new friends, and exchanging cultures :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a generalist so I know a little bit about a lot of things 🤪 I can teach you useless American cultural references, the enneagram, and tell you an array of interesting stories.

I want to learn about anything and everything! Specifically, astrology, health and wellness, design, cooking, and religion!

I can share laughs, a meal, open-mindedness, kindness, *a bit* of wisdom, mediocre dancing, secret handshakes, book recommendations, and travel stories!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, witty banter, cleanliness and respect, books, ice-breakers and camp games, I can wash dishes, I can give you a mediocre tarot card reading, share a competitive game nights, open mind, an adventure, a fun time!
