I am from America but am currently teaching English at a school in Sabah, Malaysia, Borneo. I love to travel and connect with people when I do so, hoping to understand the greater human existence by doing such.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people is an integral part of the travel experience, and I think couchsurfing is a great, intimate, safe way to meet like minded travelers. Of course, the price is enticing too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a cross-country road trip in the USA, visiting over half of the states and sleeping in a tent or my car more nights than I didn't. Saw the beautiful and candid American landscapes that so many have fallen in love for.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A willingness to do just about anything, an ever-curious pallette, and an open mind willing to talk about anything from the music I like to the places I've been, from politics to my favorite clothing brands, from the beauty of sports to the nuances of technology in our society. I offer to hosts a genuine human connection that we all are searching for (or at least I hope we all are).
