About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experiencing all 50 states!

ABOUT ME

I hate talking about myself. I like to think I am a pretty simple person that just likes to have a good time and enjoy life and the beautiful people that fill it.

PHILOSOPHY

Life needs to be well spent, because it is far too precious too waste sitting down watching it pass by. TRAVEL, EAT well, DRINK well, EXPERIENCE it all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted friends from Spain, fun travelers from Michigan, Illinois, California and can't wait for who is next! :) I love the pay it forward system of couchsurfing and love learning more about different cultures (and extra bonus if you speak Spanish because I am always trying to practice, porque estoy super oxidada).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

AMAZING. I spent a month traveling around Europe and literally had the time of my life meeting awesome cs'ers that kindly hosted me. I have hosted surfers in Minneapolis, Minnesota when I lived there (showing people that it isn't just snow and cold). I learned so much from everyone I stayed with and have made some life long friends! BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! Please couchsurf and get to know the people that host you!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Watching the sunrise from a mountain overlooking Toledo, Spain.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to be fluent in Spanish. It is a huge struggle pero poco a poco, verdad?! I would LOVE meeting other people that appreciate the Spanish language and Latin culture in general. The Latin culture is fascinating to me, but I also want to learn about any/all cultures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Smiles, laughter, a wicked time, great conversation.

Countries I’ve Visited

Brazil, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States
