CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world every chance I get

ABOUT ME

I enjoy traveling and experiencing life to the fullest! I studied abroad in Sevilla, Spain and later spent many weeks backpacking around Europe. I lived in rural China teaching English for three months and have traveled extensively around India, Southeast Asia, and South America.

I love cooking and baking. With the right ingredients, I'll mix up something delicious for sure! And nothing goes with a meal quite like a great glass of wine :). I also love visiting museums and shopping at flea markets for various artwork I can bring home with me. Some of my favorite finds have been in flea markets!

PHILOSOPHY

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed a few times in Spain and had the chance to meet up with fellow CSers. I think CS is a great way to get to know people and learn more about a city and country. Can't wait to surf more!
