CURRENT MISSION

to baske in experience and lick my fingers in savory delight

ABOUT ME

i'm your average artsy-tartsy fly-by-the-seat-of-my-yoga-pants kinda gal. i'm not keen on describing myself without the use of puppets and props; you'll just have to meet me. things i can't breathe without: my family, my best friends, travel, music, art, books, the great outdoors, laughter & silliness. also, i'm big on making random lists of things. if ya need more info, go to my seldom-used myspace or often-used facebook (yeah, i'm a little cyber-fly).

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I talk about it and spread the word about the sofa sweetness of travel to anyone who will listen. I've referred many a traveler unawares. I host. I partake in groups. I cruise CS parties for the surfer with the most embarrassing travel stories. I post and verify and give feedback...alotta feedback. I'm also a great tour guide to curious visitors.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i've hosted, i've surfed, i've partaken in the groups, i've attended the local soirees, and i've gone for that coffee/drink (well, multi-drinks)...and i love it all. I'm a CS-er for life and am committed to keep it going strong. It seems to perfectly encapsulate what i think life is all about.
