I go to the University of Texas at Dallas and my major is Healthcare Studies, IT s my minor. Few things about me: I enjoy getting out in the natural world and being away from the crowds for a while. I'm really into photography. I like the lack of interruption from phones and social media. I like walking, getting away from cars, buses, noise and traffic, it almost feels like stepping back to our most primal method of movement. I followed the philosophy of John Muir: never hike with a destination in mind; just see where the path takes you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I truly do enjoy relaxing and recharging my batteries. I want to take a break from the daily routine and create unforgettable memories. I travel to get out of my comfort zone, to learn about myself, to learn about others.

Teach, Learn, Share

Oh yes, food! The more I travel the more daring I become when it comes to trying new foods. Food brings people together. Ultimately, I travel in hopes of getting lost in order to truly find myself.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love seeing how people around the world live their daily lives, finding solace in like-minded people, people that need not be bound by race or kind but just by their thoughts. Besides, I’m someone who likes keeping things clean and organized.
