About Me

My current mission is to see as many places as I possibly can before my bank account completely dries up.

I'm an easy-going 20-something trying to make the most of life. I try not to take things too seriously and to appreciate the experiences I have been lucky enough to have.
I majored in African American Studies at university, and I currently teach college preparation and provide support for high school students from low-income backgrounds.

The best way to learn and grow is by going outside of your comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I looked in to Couchsurfing while living in Italy a few years ago, but I never ended up using it. Now after college I think it could be a great affordable way to meet new people and experience different cultures!

Interests

I love traveling, whether I can afford it or not! I also really enjoy reading, being outdoors, and spending time with my friends and family. Cooking relaxes me. I am fascinated by history and I think we have much to learn from events of the past.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I could never pick just one thing! However, I think it's amazing that no matter where you travel, there is always a person, place, smell, or site to remind you of home and family.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe in helping those who have, by chance, been born with less material privilege than others in the world. I think the way to help, too, is by sharing knowledge and creating awareness among entire communities about social injustices that they can change.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Slovenia
