Overview
About Me
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who is taking a break from the 8AM-5PM lifestyle to pursue my long-term dream of traveling the world, meeting new people, learning new perspectives, and trusting the natural flow of life! I've been thinking a lot lately about success and what it means- I would rather work less and live more! This year is a chance for me to figure out exactly what I want in life and my career.
Since May, I've been backpacking through parts of Europe and I'll be headed to Southeast Asia, New Zealand, and Australia late this Fall. Until then, I plan to wander through some of the most beautiful parts of the US in search of a potential new home. (I've lived in Florida my entire life and want to move somewhere with mountains!)
I love spending time outside and trying new things! Spontaneous adventures make life amazing!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people, learning more about life in different areas, and finding joy in the little things. Couchsurfing sounds like a great way to share the joy and meet amazing people from all around!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I suppose I'm in the middle of it. I quit my job and am traveling solo around the entire world. I'm writing this from a tiny village in Norway...it's raining outside and there are waterfalls surrounding me as I sit in the middle of a fjord.
