I am a fun solo traveler who loves adventure and to meet people all over the world. I think traveling solo is the best way to meet many cool people! Although I always welcome new friends, I also enjoy some alone time when traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I have traveled, I have randomly met amazing locals and made many friends. I would like to do so more often and be able to do the same for others. Most of my "couchsurfing" encounters have been informal and impromptu but always amazing! One memorable example is when I accepted a ride from strangers at a bus stop in Tahiti and ending up spending a super fun week hanging out with them and being hosted in their home. French Polynesia is beautiful, but the local Tahitians who befriended me made it a delightful week that I will never forget.
