About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Loving traveling the world solo and hanging out with the locals in each town. My mind has expanded SO much by meeting new people with different views and perspectives. I love learning from others and sharing lots of laughter! I have been traveling off and on for the past 4 years, mostly in Europe and Southeast Asia.

I am involved with research looking at the impact of mindfulness and other related constructs on depression and anxiety. I am currently traveling the world to learn about eastern philosophy and also look at the face of well-being in other cultures. I have recently been in Thailand, Laos, Hong Kong, and Japan. I spent a month at the Mindfulness Project in Thailand and 2 weeks at Sae Lao Project in Laos. Look them up! My next stop is Melbourne where I am hoping to get a job in mental health case management or something similar and keep working on my research while meeting beautiful people and enjoying the sun shine!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have met some folks in SE Asia who have told me that Couchsurfing has enabled them to meet the true locals and get a feel for the city. My favorite travel experiences have some from staying with locals. I love having friends around the globe!
