CURRENT MISSION

Current mission... hmm. To see as much of the world as I can, learn about other cultures and people, and expand my worldview through my experiences. :)

ABOUT ME

Hi everybody! I'm Stephanie, and I'm currently traveling around Asia. It's my first time on this continent, and I'm loving it so far! I love baking, hot yoga, salsa dancing, adventures, laughing, hiking, sky-diving, scuba diving, Spanish, and exploring. I'll be back in Seattle (probably) beginning in October 2016, and will be available for hosting as soon as I find an apartment ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nothing but positive. I have met such diverse, interesting, thoughtful people, and have gotten the opportunity to experience new cities in ways that would be impossible without the insight of a local! I am so grateful to all of the incredible hosts I have met, and I can't wait to pay back the favor as soon as I can!

Interests

Learning about new things; having interesting discussions about the world, society, and the way humans behave; exploring new places, either solo or with friends; reading engaging books; laughing about silly things; but above all, eating. It's my favorite thing to do!
