CURRENT MISSION

Spend time with people I care about doing meaningful work

ABOUT ME

I am a young adult with an open mind and an open heart. I've traveled a lot but I've recently grown roots in St. Petersburg, Florida where I continue to work in socila justice through the lens of food.

PHILOSOPHY

WWRSD?
What would Ron Swanson do? Just kidding. I work in the fields of social justice and urban agriculture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
