CURRENT MISSION

Travel = Self-Propelled Movement

ABOUT ME

I've recently relocated to the bay area and LOVE IT here! I'm barely getting my new place in order but yes I have a couch, and yes, I like meeting fellow travelers!

I'm a classic ESFJ who thrives off being around people! I'm very honest, down to earth, and love providing for and taking care of others (think mommy hen).

PHILOSOPHY

I love life and find beauty in all places.

Life is too short to be angry. I've learned to forgive and forget.

The connections you have with others throughout your life are more meaningful than any material possession you can obtain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can finally host and plan on surfing on my next trips.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've recently couchsurfed across the county and made some incredible friends and would love to return the favor!

Interests

Dancing: Lindy Hop, Swing, Salsa, Hip Hop, travel, snowboarding, road biking, hiking, reading, cooking, baking, eating, climbing, motorcycles, crafts, video games, music, and my family.

I love shopping at farmers markets, meeting the local merchants, and cooking for my family and friends. Food is very important to me and I feel it brings people from all walks of life together. It's a universal language that most people can appreciate!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On a missions trip to Mexico I met these kids who literally had nothing, yet were so happy just to play with a homemade soccer ball on a dirt field. Till this day, I try to never take any moment, person, or anything for granted.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am more than willing to teach people how to cook and how to eat healthy (yet inexpensively). I specialize in Asian, American, Latin America, and Rustic French styles of cooking!

I want to learn how to grow my own food and run a successful farm.
