Lived in 🇮🇪 🇦🇺 🇳🇿

All 50 US states by 18 and 60/195 countries spanning 7/7 to date - no interest in seeing them all, just trying to see more than what I would if I didn't go.

Recently rejoined CS in hopes to meet up with other like-minded individuals. Unfortunately haven't been able to host due to personal living situations but ideally someday. Don't have a lot of skills to share but I'm always happy to do a whole lot of nothing together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a solo traveller I tend to keep a low profile in hostels while at airBnBs I've found an increase in rentals where the owners are no where to be found. I want a more authentic experience and to push myself out of my comfort zone. I am quite social but I also don't mind being on my own.

Interests

Environmental issues (trying to cut down on my meat consumption), animal/plant care (I've had cats, turtles, fish, frogs, button quail, a rabbit, ferrets and a hamster), concerts in smaller venues (not the music fest kind), languages, architexture, historical places (castles especially), van life, tiny houses, travel
