Overview
About Me
Hey!!! I'm a married stay at home mom of 3, With a stifled sense of wonderlust & adventure. I'm really into photography, was going to the Art Institute until most of the campuses and their online program shut down. I am planning on starting up my very own photography business, hopefully by this time next year!
Other than photography I crochet and like almost all artsy craftsy things (not that I'm good at all of them!) And love all things DIY. -if you haven't failed at something, you haven't tried hard enough!-
I'm into stones/crystals and meditation. Currently on a journey of learning more about myself outside of others and just accepting myself as I am and improving on the things that I feel I should.
I'm open-minded, loving and accepting.
I think the world just needs more love & kindness and to realize that we're not all that different from each other.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think it's a great idea to bring the world together, with more understanding there will be less of the fear that breeds hate. & save on travel expenses, which in turn makes more travel and experiences possible!

Music, Movies, and Books
This question is always the hardest!!! There are too many genres and great books, songs & movies out there! My favorites always either depend on what I'm currently reading or what mood I'm in. But I'll give it a shot..
Dean Koontz is my favorite author, I've read Dragon Tears so many times.
Harry Potter (books are way better than the movies)
Vc Andrews books
And a plethora of self help books!
I love all things Disney..even if they're a little off and stereotypical
The Ugly Truth
Housesitter
Ace Ventura Pet Detective
Marvel movies
I'm a Hulu/Netflix & now a Disney plus junkie....it's cold in Wisconsin ;)
I'm all over with music and can enjoy and find value in almost any type!
I probably most gravitate to the following though on my Spotify account:
Current pop? Music
Folk music, older country, 80s rock 90s alternative the boy bands of the 00s
My can't help myself but move songs are
Blackdog by Ledzepplin
Jessie's girl by Rick Springfield
Juice by Lizzo (newest fav)
I can add more when I stop blanking on them.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Kept children alive (11 years and counting lol) on a more serious note though raising my Autistic son has been the most amazing thing I've ever done (he was primarily non verbal until he was 7. )
Roadtriped North-East coast -Maine was spectacular,
Took a train (sleeper car) to NYC, it was a blast
