ABOUT

Quit my job last year to travel (with no long-term plan), had an amazing half-year of travel, and then ended up getting an awesome opportunity to work for two animal advocacy non-profits. I currently reside in the Chicago area doing what I love and getting out to travel and meet cool people when I can.

One of my jobs (that I also had back in 2013/2014) requires me to travel in the US quite a bit, and that is how I got my start on CS a few years back.

I love being outdoors, playing sports, reading, and meeting interesting people. I care a lot about animals, people, and the environment. I don't lack passion or ambition.

Always learning and looking for adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Never underestimate the power of one person following their passion.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I enjoy exploring new areas and meeting new people. Best way to see a town is with a local. I love it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed with a lot of people, all so different from each other, and they have been some of the best experiences of my life.

I love staying with people, learning about them, and seeing the world from their perspective. It really never disappoints, as long as you are open to it.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I had the opportunity to do a 3 month internship at an animal sanctuary in Northern California. I got to take care of amazing animals and look at beautiful landscapes every day; it was one of the best times of my life! http://www.farmsanctuary.org/the-sanctuaries/orland-ca/

Getting ready to WWOOF in Costa Rica. Update... Spent the month of February 2016 in Costa Rica on an organic farm/animal sanctuary and it was an experience of a lifetime!
