About Me

I recently relocated to Holland where I am completing my MBA! Looking to travel across Europe on RyanAir EasyJet & FlixBus and hoping to meet some cool people along the journey :P
---------
I moved to Liberia in 2013 with an NGO called More Than Me, and I've been here ever since! Trying to travel across W. Africa as much as possible this year, and would love to couch surf along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been in Monrovia, Liberia for 2 years and have not taken advantage of seeing the rest of this region. I am starting with a trip to Accra Jan. 2016, and hope to visit 4-6 W. African countries this year. NGO salary doesnt totally make travel EASY, so if I can save some $$ on accomodations and meet some cool people along the way, that would be..AWESOME :)

Interests

Writing, Beaching, Eating :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I danced along a barrier of a bridge once. When I got on the first side, it was just to pose for a picture. Stares from the locals came almost immediately. So I struck a pose for my photographer friend, and when people started pointing, I started doing ballerina jumps and toe touches for their amusement. I had danced about a quarter the length of the bridge before the first car drove by and the people were moving along next to me on the sidewalk, half expecting me to fall into traffic.
Half way across the bridge I stopped for a few jumps and twirls before continuing to the opposite end. My friend couldnt stop laughing and the crowd was so large at that point the applause when I leaped off was extremely loud. It was....pretty awesome.
Never pass up a cool photo-op.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I just moved to Rotterdam, so I'm still exploring, and would welcome any surfers in Rotterdam to come by and be my exploration partner!

My MBA program is pretty much a 9-5 for me, so during the week I won't be too much fun, but weekends (And most thursdays ;) ) I'm all yours!
