I have been lucky enough to do a fair amount of traveling and really love it! I spent the last year and a half working with Vervet Monkeys in South Africa at a sanctuary and am passionate about all animals. I live a vegan lifestyle and am allergic to gluten so traveling is always an adventure in respect to food! I love hiking, running, volleyball, being outdoors in general, good food, and hanging out with awesome people :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is a great way to travel so you can meet locals and find out more about the area you are exploring. Also it's great to meet new people and experience their city through their eyes.
