I recently finished up my Bachelors degree in which I am unsure I will use...So now I am seeking a bit of adventure from life as I have been dreaming of backpacking Latin America after a short visit to Chile and Venezuela in 2012.

I am open minded, often make last minute compulsive decisions, love to laugh, appreciate kindness and beauty in all its forms, feel most at home with good friends- and particularly love a bit of sillyness and harmless shenanigans after warming up to people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Its indesputible that in order to really get a feel of a culture, you need to actually speak with the people who live there. Couch surfing is a fantastic resource to connect with people (for lack of a better expression) from all walks of life. I'm hoping my experience traveling will take me off the beaten track, so Ta-da! Here I am haha.

Interests

Currently I am pretty keen on learning Spanish, however I am only at the very beginning with that one. I am an ametuer food and wine enthusiast, enjoy baking, sketching, painting, crafting, exercising and surfing the world wide interwebs more often than I should.
