CURRENT MISSION

Explore more of the world, and subsequently learn more about life!

ABOUT ME

I have an incessant desire to learn, be challenged, to explore, to converse, to adventure all over everything and everywhere. I find travel and meeting new people to be the single greatest way to do all of those things.

PHILOSOPHY

Love the life you live, live the life you love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only had incredible adventures and memories through couchsurfing. So far, I've couchsurfed through Central Europe and hope to continue to surf all over the world. I am looking forward to hosting when I settle back down in Boston this year!

Interests

I love rock climbing, hiking, and essentially anything that will throw me into nature. I love to cook and am a bonafide foodie, so traveling and sampling the local cuisine is a must when I find myself in a new place. I love listening/dancing to live music. I'm drawn in by any challenge, be it physical or mental and as a result there are few adventures I will ever turn down.
