About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See all the amazing and diverse places the world has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I am kind of a over the place with my hobbies because I just do whatever catches my interest. My only passion is really to find something I'm passionate about, which involves trying as many things as possible! I believe life is about the experiences and memories made, so exploring and having an open mind is how I live it! I love movies and was originally a film major. Innovation and entrepreneurism fascinate me. I have been to many different countries including Japan, South Africa, Canada, Honduras, Austria, Italy, France and Germany. Traveling is my favorite thing to do and plan on doing it for the rest of my life!

PHILOSOPHY

"Twenty years from now, you will regret the things you did not do more that the things that you did"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not used this website before but very much liked the concept. In college, I mostly just stayed at friends places when I traveled. I think it would be great to meet new people while also traveling to new places!

Interests

Traveling of course! Also very interested in medicine, biomedical engineering, film. I love to camp, surf, experience things I have yet to do, climb (bouldering mostly), snowboard, cliff jump, barbecue, pretty much anything outdoors

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Highest bungee jump in the world in South Africa was pretty cool!

Teach, Learn, Share

I really enjoy traveling to different countries and meeting people who have walked a different path in life. From my experience, I have loved meeting people that were raised in a different culture than my own because I tend to learn the most from them! Respectful, appreciative, and open-minded people are people I love meeting and being around.
