ABOUT ME

I'm a friendly person who enjoys getting to know people by listening to the stories they share about their lives. I have an inquisitive nature and lives by the belief that you should try almost everything at least once. I try to be open-minded in all aspects of life but will continually have an interest in growing through experiencing different food, languages, cultures, and people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of couchsurfing. I love meeting new people and I love exploring new areas with locals!

Interests

I love expressing myself through dance and I also enjoy puzzles, comedies and snowboarding. The thing that really grabs my attention is FOOD and everything about food...the ingredients, the aroma, the flavor combinations, the textures as they combine in your mouth...it is simply incredible how one single bite can have such an amazing impact on ones senses.

But I think most importantly, PEOPLE really make my life engaging because I always think about how many years of life the other person has been living before we even met...to try to be able to understand a person after a brief meeting is unfathomable. But I feel like trying anyways. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing a Firefly Island in Kuala Selangor, Malaysia: a gorgeous natural Christmas light display that spanned the bushes of an entire small island and can only be observed on a small boat. There is also an amazing tale that goes with how I got there and back to my hostel if we ever get the chance to talk.
