Adventure seeker. Coffee drinker. Thinker. I'm a free spirit discovering the beauty of this world one country at a time. I left my office job in San Francisco to teach English in Thailand in October 2015. Once the semester ended, I strapped on my pack and dove into the SEA. I've been in SouthEast Asia for the past 8 months and (merely) plan on venturing out to the rest of Asia..

Location update: Malaga, Spain! Never know where life brings me next :) living and working on the costa del sol until another place starts calling my name..

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I am currently traveling around Southeast Asia and making my way over to Europe in September to teach English in Madrid. [Update, currently teaching in Malaga, Spain] I participated in couch surfing two summers ago when I took an epic road trip across the USA with my two best friends. We spent about six weeks on the road and met some really cool people through couch surfing. I am hoping to have a similar experience while I am traveling around the world. I am always down to try new things and to explore, so count me in if you want an adventure, even just for a day!

NEW UPDATE: Eurotripping for all of summer 2018, so I won't be hosting any longer and hoping that one of you beautiful souls can spare me a couch! See you around :)

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Tips on how to travel Southeast Asia on a budget as well as how to survive living in one of America's most expensive cities without going completely broke. If you give me a kitchen, I'll cook up a bomb veggie dish to share.
