About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world as possible, volunteering when I can, and always adventure on the horizon!

ABOUT ME

I started my travels on this earth January of 2014, and instantly became addicted to the timeless, beautiful lifestyle that becomes a wanderer. I just finished a gap year where I solo-traveled Thaiand before starting college. I love the outdoors more than anything else. I have a huge passion for survival skills and earth living. I'm stoked to be on the journey of life. Traveling for me is about experiencing the culture of a place and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to go where I can and help where I'm needed, always with a smile and an open mind!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to dedicate my life to saving the planet, and how can you do that if you don't understand it? I feel like couchsurfing is a great way to get to know a place and it's culture by meeting people who love where they are, and therefore build an understanding of the world itself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I heard about couch surfing from a couple I met while traveling. I don't have a ton of experience with it, but it seems like a really excellent tool to connect with the traveling culture all over the world.

Interests

Anything adventurous and outdoorsy. Scuba diving. Backpacking. Farming & sustainability. Photography. Volunteer work. Road trips. Conversations with strangers that turn into friendships.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The best trip I've ever done was to the Galapagos Islands--incredible photography!!

Also, my first big solo traveling experience this past spring 2014 through Thailand, Malaysia, and Cambodia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you figure out the manual settings on your camera that you always wondered about :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd be more than happy to cook you a meal if you host me and let me know what you like--I'm not a gourmet chef or anything, but I can successfully cook pasta without burning it most of the time. :)

Countries I’ve Visited
