About Me

I am a dietetics student taking a year break from undergrad to experience other flavors of life~ I practice yoga & meditation, am a RYT200 & a certified kids yoga instructor, I love to cook, hulahoop, make art, read, and study herbalism. I just came back from 6.5 months in India, and will be heading to the Seattle area on a road trip from FL for an herbalism apprenticeship. I’m looking forward to exploring the nature of the PNW, hiking, camping, wildcrafting, creating new memories, meeting new people, & learning new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Backpacking India and SE Asia for 7 months & looking for a local experience, and make some friends, on a budget :) Also will be going to the PNW & am looking to meet new people, people who can recommend me places to visit, people who want to hike and/or backpack with me, maybe go out for a fun night in town, and people who just want to hang out & exchange information & eat good food together :)
