With an open mind & open heart, I come to this space fully present. Everyone has a story, and our stories matter because we matter.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

For the first time in my adult life since post-college graduation I am not working 24/7. It took me awhile to find the courage to recognize that my life was moving at a pace and path that I didn't enjoy. So now here I am ready to seek adventure, collect new experiences and get out there to see the world! With no expectations, just pure curiosity of how other human beings are living their every day lives.

兴趣

Storytelling, lettering/calligraphy, photography, hiking & reading. I feel most invigorated when I'm surrounded by kind, chill & open-minded people hearing about what they are passionate about & the stories that shape who they are today while enjoying new experiences together!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

You can't tell by looking at me, but I actually only have one (very healthy) kidney! That's because I just donated my other kidney to my older brother who had been at the time living with kidney disease for 5 years. I can't begin to describe the joy I feel to see my brother be healthy & thriving again <3 Family first always.
