I am a simple person who likes to take one day at a time and make the most of any experience. I love laughter! I love to laugh, make others laugh - life is too short to take everything so seriously :D I am very much a fan of the little things, i.e. comfy socks, drinking just-the-right-temperature-tea, finding extra M&Ms at the bottom of the bag.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people and Couchsurfing definitely advocates that while helping people feel at home no matter where they go :]

Interests

I love art, being in nature, and staying active. When I am not drawing or painting, I enjoy hiking, reading, climbing, running or doing yoga.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving. My boyfriend has taken me skydiving twice. Both have been miracles because I am deathly TERRIBLY afraid of heights. Doing it was a result of listening to my gut as well as feeling safe and encouraged and motivated when he told me it would be okay and all that mushy stuff. I screamed, I smiled, I was terrified, and I was enlightened. It is the closest thing I will ever feel to flying - one of the best experiences of my life.
