CURRENT MISSION

I am interested in exploring the life of a Social Media Gypsy, to share and to learn.

ABOUT ME

After graduating in Spring 2013, I have been going through a series of stages in my life, helping me to get to know myself better.
I am an open book, and love to socialize. Someone once described me as being "fascinated with people".
I loved it.
As I began to look for a new journey to embark on, the open road began calling my name.
I love to read and write, music and food send me to my happy place, and I love learning!
My little Shih Tzu, Chloe, is a volunteer for a program that brings the healing power of pet therapy to those in need of some puppy love. She is my Road Dog.

PHILOSOPHY

To share and to learn.
I believe in karma, and most importantly I strive to find peace in every cycle of life. I believe to make a positive impact in my community, and therefore in the universe, I must share what I can and learn along the way from others and from nature.
I am always learning, and always looking for new ways to share. My favorite way to share is to write.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am now living with my mother, and have been actively setting up her home to be shared as a listing on AirBnB. I would like to share our guest room futon to anyone who needs a place, anytime that it is available.
I will also soon be hitting the road myself to begin a Video Blog series promoting traveling for young women on a budget. And of course to share Chloe and I's adventures! I would love to meet other couch surfers during this exciting experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My only experience with couch surfing so far has been witnessing my awesome friends use the website both to surf and in offering their own places.
I have always been curious about the site, and now would love to dive head first into this fascinating couch surfing culture!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies, Music, Books...these three things are my passion. I sleep in a library/ book room, the spare room is a movie room full of BOTH DVD and VHS, and in my free time I work on writing lyrics.
My favorite kind of music is Hip Hop, I love Dr. Seuss and The Collected Stories of Sherlock Holmes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was brought to South Africa when I was sixteen-years-old. I was very lucky to have traveled as much as I have while growing up. South Africa however, was the most magical place I have ever been to. Following close behind: Costa Rica and Alaska.

Teach, Learn, Share

This is wonderful! Sounds like Couch Surfing is the place for me!
I have experience in writing, working with children, small Social Media management, extreme organization and hosting skills, baking and I even have successful experience incubating chickens! I also work for an Organic Aloe based skin care company, which cleared my acne, has amazing scar healing qualities and offers an empowering business opportunity for women.
I am always looking to strengthen my entrepreneurial skills, filming and editing skills and I most importantly: I want to improve my vocal skills; Singing, rapping, Scatting, and impersonating.
