I am never sure how to explain "about me" in a box.
I am an extroverted introvert and enjoy alone time but also love hanging out with family and friends.
I try to be a nice person and am very empathetic.
I love getting to know people by going to see live music, outdoor activities, coffee or food while having good conversations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe the best way to experience a new place is to meet locals who truly know the city. I like to adventure and explore things that are off the beaten path rather than all the mainstream tourist things, so it is always good to have tips from locals. I enjoy meeting new people and learning their stories, life experiences, and interests. It is a much more personable experience rather than just staying at a hotel which can be sort of isolating and then you may not get an authentic experience with a city. I hope to host once I have a larger apartment.
