I'm an ambivert and empathetic soul. Overwhelmed by the world and in love with it all the same. I love laughing until I cry, getting a little buzzed and engaging in deep conversation. I lived in China for a year, and am ready for more travel. I'm always up for an adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe in the power of experiences, and those experiences are much better shared with a local.
