Overview
About Me
PURPOSE
To Live by love.
African, born & raised in California, lived a few months in England and Argentina. Shoutout to the Bay (Norcal) for 7 great years. Currently living in Southern Ca. I have a burning passion for health, community wellness (hence the public health degree) human connection and global appreciation through travel. Newly found plant based (Dr. Sebi teachings converted) & Carnival chaser. Laid back, relaxed. Clean. Animal lover. Helper. Tomboy-girly girl. Athlete. Faith. Like to cook for myself and others. Vagabond. Down for anything non harmful :)
I believe that to invest in others is an investment in not only yourself, but the world.
MANTRA
Everything happens for a purpose.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
For me, the best part of traveling is the engagement and exchange with locals and expats alike. My first introduction to travel was a study abroad program, then a homestay, then my friends' couches. When my family began hosting exchange students I was always excited to help them make the most out of their stay and my appreciation for this grew exponentially when I became an exchange student in college and it has continued to grow ever since :)
