I am an outgoing person interested in learning more about everyone and everything! I currently work as a podcast producer. I love storytelling and journalism. I recently got married and am living the newlywed life!

My parents taught me to prioritize travel in life and I took that lesson to heart. I have travelled many places in Europe but have spent the most time exploring the Middle East and North Africa. I lived for 2 months in Egypt, 2 months in Morocco and 6 months in Jordan! I learned some Arabic during my time in the region and can also speak French because half of my family is from France.

On my upcoming trip I will be traveling with Avra Dugan. Though she is a bit shy on her own, together we are very outgoing, spontaneous and always looking to laugh :) She is a kind, smart, and funny woman!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet local people while traveling and have a more fun, more authentic experiences of the places I visit! :)
