ABOUT ME
I spent a few years traveling (2008–2011), and the love for adventure has never left me. These days, I’m based in the suburbs of Atlanta with my husband and our two kids. Life is full with work and family, but travel is still a big part of who I am—we’re always planning the next trip, near or far.

I’m pretty easygoing, love a good laugh, and enjoy trying new things. Whether it’s exploring a new city, finding hidden gems in nature, or just connecting with new people, I’m happiest when I’m learning and experiencing something different.

PHILOSOPHY
I’m a free bird, still dancing to the beat of my own drum

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, travel is all about people, connection, and stepping off the beaten path. Some of my favorite memories are staying in a tiny village on the border of Haiti in the Dominican Republic, and immersing myself in local communities all across South America. I love meeting new people, sharing stories, and experiencing life through different cultures.
