CURRENT MISSION

To get out of the house more and stress less :) Over all, to be a better person.

ABOUT ME

I recently graduated from university and am now living in NYC for work. I love traveling, meeting all types of people, running, visiting different beach towns, laughing with friends, watching documentaries, listening to music and reading. I'm vegan and a huge animal lover. I'd say I'm pretty laid back and really just like chilling and talking/laughing with people.

PHILOSOPHY

No one's life should be worse so that yours can be better.

"Buddha finds freedom in both good fortune and bad."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd really just like to share some interesting stories and meet people who can share what they love about their city with me :) I really enjoy meeting different types of people and getting out of the NYC finance bubble.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great! It's given me the opportunity to meet amazing people from all over the world. I have such a different perspective on so many cities and cultures because of it.
