I'm currently studying naturopathic medicine in Seattle, WA. I love holistic medicine and ancient healing traditions. Always happy to strike up a conversation in this regard :)
I'm also interested in traveling, culture and learning new languages. I love music, playing the guitar, acroyoga, rock climbing, cooking, movies, good books, neuroscience, languages, art, dancing, sunshine, the beach at night. I'm always challenging myself to learn and do new things. Teach me!

I'll go most anywhere on a whim (various stories on this topic)

PHILOSOPHY

I don't have one mantra I live by. I'm always learning, discovering, and refining my life from my experiences. If anything, my philosophy is to be open to most anything that comes my way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I currently live in a dorm housing type situation and am very busy with school. Hopefully once I get my own place, I will be able to host again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

beautiful coffee shops in Turkey, the kindest last minute hosts in France, and a flat in Berlin with 25 amazing people sleeping in one room.

"If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking."
-Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen the sunrise and sunset over the Dead Sea in two different, yet equally amazing places.
Hitchhiked to Prague two days before my flight, had an amazing time with the best people and then made it back to the Berlin airport with one minute to spare.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know about permaculture, science, anatomy and other random facts. I can teach how to knit and cook vegan meals! Or pretty much, how to recycle anything and turn it into something new. Wanna rock climb?
