About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel through Africa and Europe on our way back to America!

ABOUT ME

Easy going, down to earth, and looking for a chance to travel the world, anywhere, anytime!

I love cooking, learning to cook new things and eating. Basically food is my passion. I will try anything once- at the right time and place (suggestion; don't eat fried intestines before a 12 hour bus ride). I also have the bad habit of eating too many chilis, maybe you'll experience this with me!

PHILOSOPHY

I love Smiling, laughing, seeing the good in people, sharing, being generous, learning to be patient and having adventures!

This can also be quite the opposite if your philosophy is "using, being grumpy and pessimistic" then I tend to not be any of the above characteristics haha.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently just a surfer but in the future when I find a real house and Job would love to share the love. I think this is a great opportunity to meet new people and explore cities together!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first time using couch surfing although I have met people who host and people who surf. Everyone seems to have a good thing or two to say so I'm looking forward to meeting new connections!

Interests

Volunteering, traveling, reading, learning new cultures, eating, cooking, chatting, dancing (and by dancing I mean falling into a trance with the music and flalling my body in every direction), wine, working out occasionaly, trashy tv can sometimes get to me too (especially with two years of no tv at all under my belt!)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music to dance to! Or music to sing on the top of my lungs. That being said I also enjoy classical music and relaxing music along the lines of Dave Matthews and Ben Howard.

My time spent in Africa has enlightened me to read numerous books of all genres, recently I've been reading Stephan king books and enjoying the change of pace!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Devils pool in Zambia at Victoria falls is maybe the best most exciting adventure I've done. Jumping into the top of a waterfall is really something special!

Teach, Learn, Share

Looking to learn about new cities and adventures, hear about places to put on my bucket list and tell stories of some Of the things I've done as Well!

I'm also very interested in middle eastern cultures and would love to learn Arabic and someday travel to all countries in the Middle East and also Asia!
