About Me

Currently working on a MSc. in Environmental Sciences, Policy, and Management - and eager to get out of academia and into meaningful environmental work that helps shift things in a better direction than we're currently headed :) Passionate about the little things in life. Enjoy hiking, bicycling, reading, live music, good vegetarian food, learning about other people's experiences and places around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to return the kind hospitality others have offered me in my travels. As a student I'm not always in the position to host a traveler(s) but I might be able to show you around. It's fun meeting folks from different parts of the world. Also, when I'm traveling, it's so nice to meet someone who's actually from/ living in the place I'm visiting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Riding my bicycle across a lot of countries- seeing the landscape change, experiencing rural places around the world, and meeting the kindest face of humanity are some of the best parts of this type of travel. (Also the epic tan lines :/)

Teach, Learn, Share

I like cooking! so I can teach someone some vegetarian recipes. Or if you're curious about bicycle travel, feel free to pick my brain about it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I can help prepare a meal, I'd be happy to. Otherwise I probably only have on offer info/stories about past experiences, so general conversation + my specialties (haha) re. bicycle travel, environmental issues (and solutions), etc.

Countries I’ve Visited

Albania, Bulgaria, Canada, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Greece, Guatemala, Hungary, Israel, Laos, Mexico, Montenegro, Myanmar, Serbia, Thailand, Turkey, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
