About Me

I work remotely and just relocated to Denver- excited to be able to host again 🙌🏻

"try to learn something about everything and everything about something." - Thomas Huxley

Other than working, I'm really trying to find myself as an individual in this big world of ours.

The first adjectives that come to mind when describing myself ares: active, enthusiastic, eccentric, passionate, adventurous, open-minded, energetic, deliberate, thoughtful, intelligent, cheeky, confident, honest, and independent.

I live a pretty balanced life- I'm a "dyanamic" character if you will. I'm a hard worker, but I also love to go out and enjoy my free time. Although I like nightlife, I also find refuge in the outdoors and love to go hiking and various outdoor activities. I was once able to knit, but I think that's a long lost skill. I love to lose myself in dance.

I spent/spend a lot of time couchsurfing and traveling, and I love meeting lots of new people.

I do a lot of random things- I love to ride my bike, but I also love to go out on the weekends. I love to go on long backpacking trips, but I also love the city life. I can pretty much adapt myself to any situation and I love to diversify my interests. I love trying new things!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While I was vagrant, I stayed with a lot of hosts that made the world of difference in my experience. Traveling with other like-minded (or not so like minded) people really opens up opportunities and provides for an amazing diversity of experience.

I hosted while I lived in NYC, and am now mostly just on CS to meet awesome new people/travelers! I can now host in Colorado!

Interests

I love too many things to list. I can have fun doing about almost anything as long as the people around me are happy, interesting, and bring cool things to the table.

  • dancing
  • education
  • nightlife
  • traveling
  • socializing
  • outdoor activities
  • cycling
  • hiking
  • snowboarding

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Anything fantasy! Feel free to follow me on Goodreads. Currently reading series in the Forgotten Realms.

Movies: I love a good period piece.

Shows: I don't own a TV, so the only time I really watch is if it is on at a friends, and I am not picky. The only thing I don't like is particularly vulgar humor, such as South Park.

Music: Top 3 are Salsa, bluegrass, reggaeton (weird mixture, I know). I love to dance latin music so that sometimes takes over :) But I am pretty eclectic, I also really like rap, folk, hip-hop, and country music. I guess I'm not picky about music either?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have traveled via foot and bus the entire perimiter of Iceland.

I also traveled around the Amazon basin for 3 weeks no plan, and $250. Made it down the Rio Napo in Ecuador, passed the border into Peru, reached the Rio Amazonas, passed into Brazil, and then traveled into Colombia. Ask me about it. It was a fascinating journey. Being the first non-native to travel to a few indigenous communities, machetes through the rainforest, staying in a petroleum company's complex, and people offering to sleep in my hammock is just a peek.
