I am an avid lover of travel currently trekking through Europe. I have a travel blog going that I am pretty passionate about. I'm 29 years old and I strongly believe in chasing dreams. Life is short and precious, so I like to surround myself with positive people that challenge me to keep burning madly. Travel is one of the most rewarding things in life. For me it is just as much about who you meet as it is about the places and cultures you explore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch-surfing because it is a wonderful community that offers travelers a chance to connect with each other all over the world. Through this network,, we can share ideas, cultures, and create truly great memories together. I think it is important to preserve this community, and to hold onto the core philosophy that started it. This is about sharing!

Interests

I am really into writing, reading, music, film, nature, art, and learning as much as I can in this life. Food is also a major interest of mine, and I love trying traditional dishes wherever I travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm constantly exploring new music, so it's hard to pinpoint my favorite, but I would say that over the years a few mainstays have been Bonobo, Radiohead, Simon & Garfunkel, Pink Floyd, Placebo, My Morning Jacket, and Trentemoller.
Film is a vast topic as well. It's probably easier to sort by directors. My favorite would be Stanley Kubrick hands down. Also love Darren Aronofsky, Christopher Nolan, Francis Ford Coppola, and Martin Scorsese.
As far as books go, I love everything I've read by George Orwell. Aldous Huxley's Island was an incredible novel. Right now I am reading Ishmael by Daniel Quinn.
