ABOUT ME

I've lived in the same area my whole life but ever since I visited Madagascar I've come down with a serious case of wanderlust and a desire to experience the world. I'm hoping this website will be a good way to not only travel but also meet people from all different walks of life. I'm always trying to learn new things, have adventures, and make friends. I can have a great time doing anything from partying all night to just hanging around my house with good company - I'm pretty laid-back and open to going with the flow!

PHILOSOPHY

The minds we have been given are an amazing gift and we shouldn't ever let them go to waste. Never stop learning, exploring, and growing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting is difficult for me at the moment, but once I move somewhere more practical for having surfers over I can't wait to open my doors to that. Still, if you are ever in the Triangle and want advice on things to do or someone to show you around and hang out, let me know! Since I've lived here so long I like to imagine I know a thing or two :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to Couchsurfing so I haven't surfed or hosted yet, but I've been to several meet-ups with the lovely locals in the Triangle and enjoyed spending time getting to know them!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Madagascar and staying in Sainte Luce has probably been the highlight of my life so far. The wildlife, the people, the culture...everything on the trip, from seeing humpback whales in the Indian Ocean to dancing the Mangaliba with an entire village of people, was amazing beyond words.

Teach, Learn, Share

I just like having a conversation and seeing where it takes us; my most insightful heart-to-hearts have been aimless rambling talks about whatever comes to mind. Maybe I can share a little something about plants or animals or psychology, but even more than that I really like to listen and learn things that I never really thought about before.
