About Me

Right now, I am studying Spanish in Entre Ríos, Argentina. At home, I was studying to become a nurse, but I decided I would be happier as a Doctor of naturopathy. It is like alternative/natural medicine.
I feel at home in the forest. Nature is where I feel calm. I like leisurely water sports, like kayaking. I have always wanted to try paddle boarding.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing because I love interacting with people in their natural setting where they are most comfortable. I also want to break out of my comfort zone to learn what kind of life I am capable of leading.

Music, Movies, and Books

I grew up listening to the eagles, the Beatles, and other classic rock. When I am driving in the car at home, I have K-Love Radio on in the background or blasted louder. I appreciate all types of music, especially if it has a positive message. The most beautiful music is when the musician describes details about his life that explain the emotions he is expressing. I'm currently reading the Bible and Jane Eyre. I try not to spend my time watching tv.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I did was go to Maui. I found a portion of jungle the native tribe is conserving organically. The jungle was noticeably lush and beautiful. I carefully climbed a tree that was very tall and covered in strong flexible vines. I climbed nearly 16 meters. From there I could see everything. I reflected on the islands culture and the spirit of their land. Everything I knew seemed small, and everything I didn't know seemed big and awesome. What was really interesting to me was the coral that lived in the water. There I saw my first live corals. They had every color of the rainbow there. Everywhere else, the coral was dead. Then, I learned the important impact of conservation on nature.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach light yoga and meditation. I want to learn about people and humanity from different perspectives. I want to share my enjoyment of life with others and maybe some observations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am easy to get along with and I love to listen to stories. I have only few to tell. I am a hard worker if you have a project I could lend a hand on. I'm stronger than I look. I have strong organization skills, too. I would be able to help cook meals and/or clean up afterwards. I want to make friends, so I could be a workout buddy, or yoga instructor. I could also draw a picture for you, I like art.
