About Me

ABOUT ME

Friendly well-traveled writer. Traveling around the world for a year+. Previously worked in the book publishing industry as a business manager in NY. Currently in Europe after Wwoofing in France. Welcome meaningful exchanges along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to find local cultural experiences to grow from, to share what I've seen and gained while traveling light.

Interests

We learn about ourselves best through others and create a better world when shared.

I left a corporate job in New York over a year ago and have been discovering the world and our collective human condition along the way. Finding endless examples of how joy and kindness are tied to each other.
