Hey there! After quitting my job in the US I am embarking on a year of travel to learn, play, work in nature, and connect with curious and expansive souls.

I'm fascinated by humans and our connections to each other and to nature, and am currently exploring breathwork meditation. Throughout my travels I will be seeking out opportunities to learn about permaculture, bio construction, and other ways to we can better live in harmony with the earth. I am also a writer and plan to be doing lots of that while I travel! I love learning about and eating local food, drinking coffee, dancing, gardening, and deep talking about life, books, relationships, psychology.

I love spending time with hosts but am also independent and happy to show myself around. I am clean, curious, outgoing and so excited to be traveling (and speaking Spanish!!!) again!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first couchsurfed a few years ago in Europe during a bike trip and was blown away by the beautiful people I met. As a traveler, I experienced so much kindness and hospitality from hosts that made my travels incredibly special and genuine experiences. Hosting couchsurfers and showing them my city was also so fun and rewarding.

I believe that by meeting, sharing with and learning from different people we can grow and expand ourselves – there's always something to learn and something to share.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to dance (and recently learned to DJ!) and have recently gotten more into electronic music. But I also love more low key live music like folk, funk and bluegrass. And reggaeton of course.

Some favorite books include The Book of Form and Emptiness, Why Fish Don’t Exist, the Sparrow, Sapiens, Bewilderment, and Maybe You Should Talk To Someone.

My favorite movie is Hunt for the Wilderpeople
