About Me

ABOUT ME

Extroverted introvert. I like to think I am fun but don't always think of myself as cool. I like to daydream about my next destination and the people I will meet or things I will do. I have trouble saying no to food and new experiences. But overall I think I'm a laid back person who loves curious people and learning new things.

PHILOSOPHY
"Take time to work, it is the price of success.
Take time to think, it is the source of power.
Take time to play, it is the secret of perpetual youth.
Take time to read, it is the foundation of wisdom.
Take time to be friendly, it is the road to happiness.
Take time to dream, it is hitching your wagon to a star.
Take time to love and be loved, it is the privilege of the gods.
Take time to look around, it is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to laugh, it is the music of the soul."
--Old Irish Prayer

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have gone to CS meetings while traveling and have surfed a few couches. I have met some great people through CS events and love spreading the word about CS to people I hope that can help grow the community. CS has never failed to remind me of the kindness of strangers and a universal pleasure that many get from traveling and meeting new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Was introduced to CS while studying abroad in Rome and have definitely made some great friendships through it. Since then I have surfed Pisa, Greece, and Paris and then some in the USA. First meetup with a random couchsurfer back in the states resulted in a great cliff diving day trip!

Interests

Eating, travelling, reading, hiking, backpacking, anything with water, trying new things and exploring new places, feeding my curiosity and awe with the world

Music, Movies, and Books

Love a wide range of music from folk to edm to hip hop to alternative rock to soul. Greatly enjoy being introduced to new music as well so show me what excites you!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching Moroccans prepare leather in the traditional tanneries from the top of a shop in Fez
Slept on the beach in Miami to wake up to my first sunrise on the east coast.
Trekked over the only advancing glacier in the world, Perito Moreno Glacier!
