Full of wanderlust. Always looking to learn and grow all ways possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people while traveling. Love culture and learning about new cultures. End up traveling alone often so looking to meet fellow explorers and locals in new lands. :D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived with monks for a year doing volunteer work. I learned how much I could gain by giving that year. Was a great experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always looking to learn as much as I can which is part of why I travel. I have many stories, can cook dishes from around the world and have a good joke here or there I can tell. :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've traveled a lot. I have a wide knowledge of many places and can make many suggestions. I would be possibly interested in housing swaps in New York City and other countries or in guests coming to visit. I'm more interested in knowing people before they stay or stay with them however. Always happy to host and even cook for friends. Can't always hang out due to work obligations however. :D
