About Me

Hello! My name is Mandy and traveling is my greatest passion. I'm a multimedia content creator and marketing professional who loves to share the stories of the world. I'm originally from New York and moved to Los Angeles two years ago start a new chapter of life.

I spend every spare moment traveling. New faces and new places are my everything. My passions are outdoor adventure, writing, urban exploration, photography, music, art, fashion, film, and learning new languages. I am very open-minded and have respect for all of humanity, so don't hesitate to reach out to me. I love making new friends from various cultures to exchange perspectives and explore this beautiful world with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with others, and meet up / stay with locals in different countries. I promise I am a very respectful guest and a pleasure to be around :) Additionally, I love to show others around my home country.

Note: I am NOT on Couchsurfing for hookups. If that is your intention for hosting/meeting me, do not bother reaching out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmm, just one? I'll make a quick list:

- I represented the USA at a global communications conference in Barcelona
- I helped write an ebook on US-Japan relations, and the Japanese government sponsored my trip
- I went rappelling (jumped off a cliff!) in Israel
- I hiked through a flashflood in Maui, Hawaii (terrifying!)
- I found my dream home in Sintra, Portugal. (Pena Palace - a pink castle!)
- I slept under the stars and next to camels in the Negev Desert with the nomadic Bedouin tribe
- I sat next to the pilot on a helicopter ride over waterfalls and volcanoes
- I went snorkeling with turtles, stingrays, and fish in the Virgin Islands
- I explored a several million year old cave in Slovenia
- And most importantly... I've shown the world that yes, young females can travel solo!
