Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To have been on every continent by 2026 and travel down the Pan American Hwy
ABOUT ME
I've always had a passion for going out and seeing the world, and now that i'm more independent, it's finally becoming a reality. I love observing and listening to the world around me, but I was born and raised in Washington state in the US, but I've also spent time studying in California.
PHILOSOPHY
Life shouldn't be stressful. You have to flow with what you are given. I don't want to be constrained by money, and I don't just want to live for myself. I want others to benefit from my existence, and I think that should be the aim of everyone else too. If the world revolves around you, then your world is too small.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Honestly I've just started. I wanted to surf during a recent trip, but because it was valentines day weekend, not many people were available. Hopefully I'll get to have my first experience soon!
When I have a place of my own in a few years, I'll definitely be hosting, but until then...
