About Me

Heya!
I'm a traveler by heart and love experiencing new cultures and make new friends all over the world. Before covid hit, I spent several years backpacking and living in different countries.

I love travelling slowly and get to know the places I visit and the people I meet. A lot of the places I've been there haven't been much couchsurfing possibilities, but I've still met a lot of awesome couchsurfers all around.

Now that covid allows for travelling again I am looking forward to my next big adventure - going to the US and experiencing Burning Man! I've been to several smaller burns the past few years, but I'm really looking forward this next adventure!

Looking to experience as much as possible of the US while I'm there and making new friends, so if you have a couch I could borrow, or just want to meet up - please reach out to me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I think traveling should be social, relaxing and teaching.

First couchsurfing experience: stayed with Milla from Finland at her home in Malawi. We got along so great I eventually stayed for almost three months! I went back to visit a year after and we still keep in touch!
