About Me

I grew up in Florida and now live in Santa Cruz, Ca, so I have always lived by the beach. I love mountains, rivers and the beach and always try and be around nature as much as I can. I am currently traveling through South America at the moment, seeking to inspire, be inspired, and share some beautiful moments with others along the way. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently traveling through South America, in Argentina at the moment, and would love to meet some locals and sleep on some couches :) I'm couch surfing for the obvious reasons, such as backpacking on a budget as I quit my job to travel, but also because staying in hostels I've realized that you miss a lot of the local culture.

Interests

I love having lengthy conversations with complete strangers, dancing until the morning light, cooking delicious food and sharing good wine and beer with good people. I'm interested in nature, animals, yoga, music, dancing- salsa to be specific- love it!

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to music I'm a bit of everything except pop. Movies and books change with the seasons, although currently my favorite movie is Captain Fantastic and my favorite book is Jupiter´s Travels,

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I lived in Central America, I experienced living in a house without electricity and washed clothes in a river. It was amazing.
