Super creative and artistic. Always adoring nature and animals, and painting lots of that too. Curious and stoked to be learning new things all the time, this includes lots of reading. Fond of friends and making new ones wherever I roam, its also the best way to learn stuff, from people! Totally involved in healthy lifestyles and cooking. Will gladly teach anyone how to cook and make them a nice meal. All of my other hobbies and interests revolve around being outdoors as much as possible, exploring, and staying active; yoga; hiking; camping; swimming; climbing; gardening (growing food to cook!); cycling; and skateboarding.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love to travel and meet people everywhere! Exploring and engaging in genuine human interactions is such a delight. I love to learn how other people live around the world.
Hosting people with the same intent is super cool and I love to intoduce others to my home town and help out however I can.
