About Me

Hey people!
I'm a young woman from San Diego, CA living in Rwanda. I have lived in Kigali for over a year now and absolutely love it. If you're visiting, I'd love to tell you the great places to watch sunsets, eat local grub or get a fantastic cup of coffee. I enjoy traveling a few times a year with or without my Austria girlfriend. We love to hike, bike, and drink beer (or wine for me!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel more places and I have unconventionally hosted many couch surfers over the years.

Interests

Humanitarian architectural work, hiking, biking, hanging out on porches or next to water of any kind.
