About Me

Hello! I’m restarting my Couchsurfing journey and preparing for a long-term adventure across the United States, with occasional trips to other countries, through January 2028.

This journey is about people, stories, and local experiences — not just destinations. I love learning where locals actually go, hearing real-life stories, and sharing meaningful conversations along the way.

I travel with a mindset of abundance, curiosity, and gratitude. I value kindness, mutual respect, and genuine human connection. I’m easygoing, respectful of space and routines, and always grateful to anyone who opens their home or shares their time.

Not here to date — I’m here to build authentic connections, friendships, and memories with people from all walks of life.

If you’re open to sharing a story, a meal, or a local perspective, I’d love to connect!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and learning what makes them tick. I've had the pleasure of being able to travel around the United States before as well as Europe over the past years, and I've grown so much from the experiences I've embraced along the way — it is time to explore Central and South America as I continue my journey.
I want to help others grow as they explore their own journey. I firmly believe that we should be here to help each other succeed. I want to help you succeed in your exploration of life!

Interests

I enjoy wandering around aimlessly, exercising, naturism, cooking, exploring, bowling, karaoke, happy hour, meeting new people, learning about cultures, and so much more!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love anything that makes me laugh. My music taste is all over the board — very similar to my karaoke choices — though I usually skip hard rap and hard rock. Movie-wise, I’m into comedy, action, sci-fi, and I somehow love to hate scary movies. I mostly listen to audiobooks since I stay busy, but I want to start making more time to sit down with a good fictional story. Always open to recommendations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I've done was I traveled to the 48 contiguous states in the United States in one stretch. It took me a little over six to do and I drove over 26,000 miles (~41,842km) to make it happen!
