WHAT'S UP!

I'm new to Couchsurfing. Here to learn and give back about traveling and chasing dreams abroad.

I'm still changing and learning about myself, but most consistent are these nouns: Foodie. Artist. Aspiring fusion cook.

There is no weather in which I wouldn't be down to cook and feast with company. I'm also good game for romping outdoors and learning new wisdom: like, what's herbs are edible, or, how do you throw a frizzbee well?

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Traveling cheaply is a bit of luck and a lot of privilege.

When there's a way, it's thanks to the deep generosity and compassion of people, often strangers. I traveled solo for the first time as a freshman. I knew no one in Korea, spoke little Korean, and sat in a plane for 13 hours clutching my sketchbook. If not for the friendship offered by the lady sitting beside me, I wouldn't have survived the first stretch of travel. She turned out to be a killer architect and amazing friend.

I hope to return the same caliber of warmth, help, and guidance to Couchsurfers.

Centres d'intérêt

I used to trace Pokemon all the time, and those little drawings of wands and monsters from Harry Potter.

Now I illustrate picture books. Read graphic novels. Play piano. Hike. Write. Dance. Karaoke.

Teach: FOOD

I have an arsenal of recipes for delicious home-cooking: mostly Japanese cuisine, but also sprinkles of Mexican, Italian, Chinese, and Korean. I can teach you to cook, eat sushi properly with your hands, and possibly teach you how to play chords on the keyboard if you have one.

Learn: PLAY

I want to learn how to make the most of outdoors and outdoor entertainment fostered by imagination.
