Hi! My name is Kendra and I’m a NY native, and have lived 40 minutes outside New York City my whole life. I love traveling, and getting to know new people, and going on adventures! The love of my life is my dog Mina who is a 7 year old collie-shepherd mix. She is extremely smart and affectionate, and tends to shed a decent amount. I was raised with Unitarian beliefs so I love and respect all people no matter the race, religion, gender, sexuality, or creed. Because of this I also love to engage in conversation about anything really! I also really appreciate the art of cooking and am always in the kitchen trying and creating new recipes. I’m a newcomer to Couchsurfing, but am more than excited to being traveling more, and meeting/hosting others!!
