This is not a dating app, it’s a community of connecting with cultured travelers. This app is not tinder, do not reach out if your intentions are the same mindset as that. Plain & simple.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m here to experience cities through the eyes of locals, obviously discover hidden gems you wouldn’t find as a typical tourist, and connect with new friends while learning about more cultures & traditions.

Some things I love:
• Trying authentic dishes that can be made vegan
• Explore secret native spots
• Go biking, hiking, or foraging with a host, or get recommendations for renting a bike or discovering great trails.
• Visit popular dance venues, bathhouses, or natural thermal springs
• Meet fellow ocean enthusiasts to snorkel or sail

One of my favorite experiences was joining a radio host at work—an unforgettable way to immerse myself in local life. I’m excited to create more meaningful connections and memorable adventures!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I bring a wealth of knowledge in holistic health, natural remedies, plant based nutrition, overall well-being, and tips for plant-based cooking. I’m also happy to help with organization, keeping spaces clean, and respecting house rules.

One of my favorite ways to connect with hosts is by recreating their favorite dishes and giving them a delicious plant-based twist
