About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live, love, laugh, and see the world!

ABOUT ME

I have high levels of natural energy (no caffeine needed) and youthful, adventurous spirit. I love to travel the world, make new friends, and learn about other cultures (people, food, music and dance). I enjoy other cultures more than travel within the USA and escape whenever I can!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've done more surfing than hosting, but enjoy both! I love exploring the world and I hope to do more surfing soon, and also more hosting at home in Arizona. I have attended a few local CS events and am looking forward to more!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed 6 couches in 6 countries in Europe in a month and made some fantastic new friends! I also met some great CSers in Central America (some hosted me some were fellow travelers in hostels).

Interests

Anything active is good with me (hiking, volleyball, rollerblading, rafting or SCUBA) and even better if outdoors. I also like to read and watch movies, as well as taking pictures and traveling the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

Loved the Stieg Larssen books and movies in Swedish!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two things at top of the list, although stereotypical still amazing - visited the Taj Mahal and went SCUBA diving in Great Barrier Reef.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can all teach each other something, it just takes an open mind and a willingness to listen.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A trustworthy, respectful and clean surfer who offers a great exchange of energy, travel stories, and enjoys life to it's fullest!
