About Me

CURRENT MISSION

No missions, just experiences

ABOUT ME

I just recently graduated with my MBA from the UK. Now, I am traveling around enjoying my new found freedom.

I enjoy being outdoors, riding horses, reading, and chilling for hours at cafes in random cities. I love meeting new people and seeing new things.

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am planning to do most of my traveling via couch surfing.

Interests

Horse back riding, all disciplines. Reading (that would be the Literature Major in me). Drawing, generally from photographs, so not really an artist, it's just for fun. I love being outdoors. Camping, hiking, or even just sitting out on the grass will suffice. Music, there is not a day goes by that I do not listen to music. Recently, I have been trying my hand at cooking. I have mostly been throwing random things together, but if anyone has any easy-to-do recipes, I would love to hear them.
