It's always hard to describe yourself but I think the best thing to say is that my life and who I am have been mostly defined by the travel opportunities I've had, and the continuous planning of other trips that I hope to take!

I'm very easygoing, go-with-the-flow and all that, and I'm always up for an adventure or new experience. I'm independent, but I still think it's important and rewarding to connect with people and get to know other people, places, and cultures by spending time together.

I'm currently working in Malaysia for one year teaching English, so I'm hoping to see a lot of Southeast Asia. I spend most of my free time napping or reading or looking up places to visit or hike or explore in the area.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel to discover new cultures, and staying with locals from couchsurfing lets me see the cities in a different, more real way.

I've couchsurfed alone and with my boyfriend in Europe and Morocco, and I always meet great people that make my trip even better. When I'm settled one day I would love to host as well

Interests

I love languages, nature, new places and people, open conversation.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: I like to read novels set in places I'm about to visit, as well as more "boring" books about politics or economics, and memoirs
of cool people.

I'm not a huge fan of watching movies (except Disney animated movies), but I prefer light-hearted and funny movies and shows.

TV Shows: The Office, Arrested Development, Grey's Anatomy, How to Get Away with Murder, Friends, How I Met Your Mother, Parks and Rec
