ABOUT ME

I've loved couchsurfing since the first time I surfed with a first-time host in Paris. She was wonderful and shared her home with me and a friend, I was totally blown away with the amount of kindness. I've been sold since that day. This is one of the coolest experiences ever invented. I've met so many amazing friends and fellow wanderlusters over the last few years, I am so grateful to Couchsurfing for that. My goal as both a guest and a host is to echo and amplify the kindness of the awesome people I've encountered so far on my journey.

Plus drink lots of beer. Beer and couchsurfing just seem to go hand in hand!

As far as me...I'm constantly searching for insight. If you're like me, you know exactly what I'm talking about. I find lessons in everything so travel is like the best possible way to bring amazing lessons to the surface. I think that's why I love it so much. Taking yourself out of your element is exhilarating and eye-opening.

Of course there is a comfort to couchsurfing because it's like a "home away from home" but I think for me the most important thing is spicing up life with amazing little stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent an entire year living in my sister's attic with no paychecks, not partying, wearing exclusively goodwill bargain clothing in order to build a business that now allows me to travel full time.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a good deal of experience with online marketing so if you have any sort of business or idea, I can probably help develop some ideas on how to get the word out!

I love to learn from many perspectives. It keeps me interested in life, and I read a lot of books so I love to discuss all sorts of philosophy type of stuff. If you're into that, we can surely be friends!
