Singer, Programmer, Cook, Volleyball player, Coffee connoisseur, travel obsessed, Salsa-Bachata-Merengue dancer. Promise to put all of the above in a more reader friendly version very soon :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently reminiscing the most glorious 2 year long solo RTW trip.

As much as I am travel obsessed, I love meeting new people, especially travelers. There is always so much I learn from other travelers, backpackers and would absolutely love to host interesting people in my humble apartment when I am in town.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After a million warnings about how unsafe it is to travel and venture out alone in Jamaica, I decided to trust my guts and hitchhike with few locals along the countryside, one afternoon. It led me to few hidden river points and diving spots which were absolutely gorgeous. It taught me to be cautious as a lone female traveler but also trust your instincts and the world from time to time.

Teach, Learn, Share

Good food, music, dance, languages...to name a few

What I Can Share with Hosts

I prefer single or max of 2 travelers at a time, as I have small but quite cosy apartment. The guests should be okay to share the bathroom and the kitchen with me. What I really mean is, Mi Casa es Su Casa :)
