Currently taking time off from working and doing what I've been wanting to do for many years- travel! I did a two-month Central America backpacking trip last year and then did the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage in August in Spain and have been traveling since then.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to meet more local people in the places that I'm travelling and get more insight into those places to have a richer travelling experience. I love to meet new people and learn from their experiences and insight as well as just enjoy good company over a meal, a walk or any number of activities.

Interests

Up for many things. Love new experiences. I enjoy urban environments as well as natural. I like being active as well as taking in cultural activities and relaxing too. I'm in for social outings but also enjoy quietude and solitary activities like reading and journaling.
