About Me

Hey folks!
Ahorita, estoy viajando en Sudamérica. Quiero conocer lugares increíbles y gente lindo 💜 Tengo muchas historias, chistes, y amor por compartir. Por favor, podemos vernos!

I recently finished university where I was studying Global Health and Community and Justice studies. I loooove to learn and try new things. Of course, traveling is the perfect way to do that.

I love learning about and tending to plants of all kinds. I hope to learn as much as possible about their healing nature in different areas of the world. :)

Here's to hoping we cross paths!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people is my favorite hobby and this seems like the perfect way to do that!! I also feel like the experience of staying And connecting with a local would be much more enriching, spontaneous, and rad than a hotel or even hostel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Any kind of reggae or like Bombay Bicycle Club kind of stuff. The Princess Bride is a classic. Just about anything by Noam Chomsky.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climb Mount Kenya, being hugged by an elephant, kissing a giraffe, swimming with crocodiles, sharing the impact of yoga, exploring the world... and more :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach yoga, I love to learn, and I’ll share what I have :)

I would love to learn traditional dances of South America! I am also learning to read Tarot cards and will gladly share what I know.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good laugh or ten, lots of stories, a hand to clean and cook or fix things, experimental recipes, book and music recommendations, and an all around good time!
