About Me

I grew up in a beautiful coastal surf town. If you haven't visited Santa Cruz yet, I highly recommend it! I've always loved playing outdoors, so I took naturally to surfing as well as most other sports. I love playing all types of games. If there's a little friendly competition, I'm in! And my biggest passion is food. I recently started my own catering business and we specialize in pop-up find dining dinner parties. I love hosting people for a good time, especially when it centers around the dinner table. There are too many amazing cultures with incredible food to pick a favorite, that's why I look forward to learning recipes and styles firsthand from locals!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be setting off in April 2015 for a journey through Europe! My itinerary is wide open with potential destinations in Ireland, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Croatia, Greece, Czech Republic, Hungary, and Turkey. I would love to meet up with locals, cook great food, and learn about these wonderful places from the ones who know them best. I will be traveling solo, as this will be that "once in a lifetime" trip. To stay I'm excited about this would be a massive understatement! I look forward to connecting with different couchsurfers throughout Europe!
