About Me

My friend described me best when she said, "It really didn't matter where, she just liked to go." I have always loved traveling and exploring, be it in my backyard or another country. In 2016 I traveled throughout Central America, South America, the United States, North Africa and Europe. I lived in Alaska from 2018-2021 and just moved to Los Angeles. I am a professional writer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and experiencing things the local way. I've couch surfed a lot in Central and South America and had some really great experiences.
