My name is Natalie and I am new to couchsurfing. I'm a fun loving, adventurous, and generous person. I love meeting new people from all over the world and sharing interesting experiences. I am a real foodie, I love to cook and bond over meals. I like learning about the history of the places I visit, exploring, and enjoying all that new places have to offer. I am a big conversationalist, I love learning about people and sharing stories. I am a super easy guest, and I love partaking in mutual aid.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be able to meet new people, travel, and have special experiences. I made some incredible friends who I picked up hitchhiking in New Zealand. A little kindness goes a long way, and it's amazing the worlds we unlock by helping a stranger in need! I have finally landed my own apartment and can’t wait to have everything set up so I can start hosting myself.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love many kinds of music, genres are a debatable topic but broadly I listen to alot of rock, rnb, indie, hip hop, folk, reggaeton, reggae, I also like listening to world music and specifically enjoy acoustic music from all over the world, and more specifically afrobeats, panjabi, celtic, handdrum… so a bit of everything! I love music and am learning the ukelele. For movies, some of my favorites include Amelie, Scott Pilgrim vs the World. I like quirky movies, a good plot with well rounded characters, and a great soundtrack of course.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a road trip throughout the United States and got to mountain bike and ATV through the gorgeous landscapes of Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming.
