About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see the world, meet great people and eat until there's nothing left to try.
ABOUT ME
I am currently on an around the world adventure with my boyfriend Chris, who you’ll find in most of my pictures. We both have been traveling the world full time since April 2019. Wherever we are, we tend to focus on exploring the culture and enjoying our surroundings, but we pair explorations with sustainable efforts by doing park and beach cleanups wherever we are.
We are both big dog lovers and all animals in general. Love staying active through yoga, surfing and Chris does jujitsu. I try to run every morning and eat well but I certainly don't limit myself in trying new foods.
PHILOSOPHY
Open mindedness is key. Currently living life for personal enjoyment, hopefully providing joy to others along the way.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The toughest part of long term travel (even when traveling with a partner) has been meeting people. Hostels are a great place but two beds often cost more than a hotel room so we often opt for the hotels, but don’t end up meeting as many travelers as a result. If there is one thing we miss the most it is a social environment and meeting people who make you feel at home no matter where you are. What I am trying to say is I love the opportunity to just sit down and chat directly with a local, get to know them and share stories; and Couchsurfing offers a great way to do that.
Chris and I both love to learn from people and give back where we can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Selling everything and leaving home to travel the world for a year!
Teach, Learn, Share
I could teach of course English, Russian, some Hebrew. Gymnastics, dance, a good workout routine, yoga. Some great healthy and hearty recipes. Recently I have been immersing myself into plant based and vegan cuisine. love to discuss media theory including history and future of technology and communication (this was my major). I would love to expand my knowledge in cooking and history, as well as writing, photography, guitar.. so many things to learn, so little time!
