About Me

I was born in the Caribbean and lived there until I was 10. I've lived in the U.S. ever since. Currently, I am having the time of my life on an exchange program in Dublin, Ireland.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've never really considered couch surfing as a way to meet locals abroad. It seems to have worked for some friends so I thought I'd give it a shot! It is possibly the best way for travelers like myself to see the city the way locals do.

Interests

I love live music and recently started to enjoy cooking. I also love museums, horror films and comedy tv series.

When I'm not doing any of that, I'm probably attempting to make something (crocheting, knitting, painting)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hands down-- Sky diving! So terrifying yet freeing! I don't know if I'd do it again but if I absolutely had to it would have to be in Dubai. I would love to try bungee jumping either in South America or Africa.
