Overview
About Me
Backpacking all around the world for the next year- started in February 2018. I studied engineering and am avoiding having to sit behind a desk from 9-5 everyday of my life lol
I’m open to new experiences and trying new foods. Always up for a casual beer or glass of wine, great way to relax after a long day! I love the mountains and the beach.
I want save the world. Sick of all the trash on beaches and in the ocean. Maybe joining the peace Corp when I go home??
I truly believe in the spirit of couch surfing and I love spending time with my hosts. Learning about people’s passions and what experiences they’ve had while growing up or while traveling that help make them who they are today, is something that I find joy in. When I see someone get excited to tell me about their story and their passion it creates this feeling of pure joy for both of us. Everyone I’ve met thru couch surfing is unique from one another and I couldn’t picture my crazy beautiful travel life without having met some of them! One even convinced me to go vegetarian (lasted about 6 months before I caved and had a cheese burger Hahahaha)
From San Francisco so when I get back I’ll take my turn in being a host! I’d be more than happy to take surfers out to some cool spots in the city. But on a very important note- this is a deal breaker- I have no tolerance for racism, homophobia or any kind of prejudice toward any human. We are all equals, we are all born with capability to turn our lives into something amazing if we just believe in our goal and work for it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Traveling for the next year, this is the best way to meet locals or someone in the area that can help me navigate my way around or even come with me on adventures!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I snuck back stage at the New Year’s Eve ball dropping ceremony in New York City and made it 10ft away from Taylor Swift.
