CURRENT MISSION

Visit new places like a local.

ABOUT ME

I travel to experience new ways of living, eat new foods, and see the infinite variety of different places. I love trying new foods. And music. (I play a few instruments.)
I love soaking up new cultures - all aspects of life - but most of all, connecting with people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Thus far, I've only stayed with friends I've known previously.

Interests

I'm a nerd, and nature is magical, so being outside, camping, hiking, swimming - especially in the ocean is restorative. Soaking up new environments, new cultures, new ideas is my favorite. Making heart-to-heart connections, and sharing life stories is why I travel.
