About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hello,

Just returned from Europe, tentatively accepting guests. Prefer weekends as I work during the week, but you’re welcome to ask. Also, rather host solo female travelers because I understand the struggle. Thanks!

Past experiences below~
I am leaving the States 27th Of July until the 5th of September to explore Europe. Seeking hosts throughout different countries. Also, welcome to fellow travelers. Reach out and say hello!
I graduated recently from UC Santa Cruz with creative writing/literature and education. So, share with me something you like to read or are interested in learning about. I love learning new things. Some other things I like to do are yoga, hiking, swimming in natural waters (like lakes or rivers), dancing, karaoke, and much more.
Tell me your favorite thing to do.
I am working with new languages, most familiar with English and Spanish. Looking forward to it. 💕
Thanks

ABOUT ME

Salutations! In the beginning of Spring 2014 I started my great cleanse from a society/city that stressed me out more than made me happy. Few months down the line I finally find myself in a position that I have discarded all that which will not serve me and have committed my heart to manifesting anything and everything I desire. So, here I am looking to connect to those that are like me down to meet those we share this planet with. My goal is to connect with people all across the nation.

In August 2014 I started my journey through the pacific north west. I left with only my pack and a open heart to connect. Since I have been challenged and empowered by the pure glory and grace life infinitely displays in our experience. I have since visited OR, WA, AZ, NM, and CO. Stoked to connect to more soul family and watch the story unfold naturally.
The journey begins in San Diego from May 18-27, 2015 then Joshua Tree til the end of May. And as of June I will begin individually hitch hiking /looking for rides east. Looking for couch surfing of people east. I'm ready for adventure, let's let the good times roll.
June 2015 I started my way cross country alone. For two weeks Craigslist provided me with a car as I visited the south and south east. Made the trip coast to coast, and as I continue into July I'll be headed through the north east.
Aug 2015 fate has it I got hooked up with another car to drive east to west!
Started in Philly, and headed west! Looking for hosts in the area.
Sept 2016 on the road again with Hudson!
August 2017, total solar eclipse, Wyoming.
Hosting in Santa Cruz

Visited Kona, HI in 2018
I climbed Mount Whitney this summer, 2019.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a traveler, looking to visit all over Europe. Hitting as many countries, places, and connecting to as many people as possible. All recommendations are welcome. Couchsurfing connects me to awesome knowledgeable locals, whether I crash at their pad or not I often just connect for the contact regardless of host availability.
I also love helping out couchsurfers that are my host by sharing meals, cleaning up the place, and of course having chill hang out seshes where we're swapping stories. I've met some really lovely people through this site, and I intend to continue to do so and exchange.

Interests

I am a backpacker. I love reading and writing. I love baking pastries, breakfast, and making teas and coffee. I'm a former barista. Spent a lot of time in the theatre back in the day. I also enjoy photography and most art related things. Recently had a things for poetry, and would love to exchange. Looking to learn more on piano and musical instruments. Former top soprano in choir.

I am looking forward to learning more languages.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled across the states.

Teach, Learn, Share

A genuine connection.
I am your sister on this planet and I'm here to connect with you and share this experience on the planet. I'm happy to exchange any sort of energy but PLEASE don't feel concerned that we have to be similar in the things we like at all. I'm opening myself to everyone. Let's get meeting!

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I slightly mentioned before, I love baking and cooking to share meals with hosts. I often am able and happy to help clean up around the home of a host. I am great with kids and animals. I love enjoying good company and sharing things such as stories, books, adventures, or just plain good old times. Even if you just down to have me come over, crash for a night, then just stay in touch that's awesome. Or we set up a week, and I can help out around. I've had a great time surfing thus far and excited to keep the party going!
