I'm thankful to be a full time adventurer as I'm currently taking a pause from studies in order to learn some more important lessons. Right now I'm working as an Au Pair in Germany for a lovely family, who knows what's next...?
I absolutely love new places, new friends, and new experiences. I love to hear perspectives from different people around the world and am always up for coffee and conversation, hiking, or just hanging out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm focusing my priorities on a few things: gratitude, simplicity, and connectedness. This seems like a community who values these things too, and I'd love to learn more from my hosts and (future) surfers

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roadtrip from LA to Vancouver and back in 6 days, very little sleep but incredible views and adventures!

Teach, Learn, Share

Let's have a coffee and talk about the world and universe and all the goodness in it. I'll draw you a picture, and we can share picnics and stories and friendship.
