I'm a friendly, low key traveler and friend. I love meeting new people, learning new things and seeing new places.

My favorite activities are yoga, cooking and baking, walking and hiking, enjoying good conversations, playing board games and adventure sports. I grew up riding horses and try to ride a horse in every country.

I love chocolate and am developing a taste for wine and beer. I also love to go out dancing, although most nights I am enjoying a meal with friends at home.

I am looking for Couchsurfing friends to meet and hosts to stay with. For transparency, I am in a long-term relationship and not looking for any romantic relationship or fling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the best way to explore the world is by meeting people. I love traveling and seeing new places, but it's usually the experiences with people that remain in my heart and mind when I reflect on my travels.

I have stayed with Couchsurfers before - but it was through my friend Leah's profile when we traveled together. So it looks like I just joined but I've been couchsurfing for years

Music, Movies, and Books

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho is my favorite book because it is about traveling and the journey inside ourselves. I'm currently reading Harry Potter books and watching The Crown on Netlflix to prep for my upcoming trip to London and Scotland! I love all sorts of movies and always try to watch Oscar-nominated films every year. My favorite TV shows, books, and movies usually involve mystery and comedy.
