About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living in the here and now, and not dreaming too much...but definitely a little!

ABOUT ME

Well I love to be a host and I love people...so please come and stay, I cannot wait to meet you!!!

I love meeting new people and watching the coarse of our lives change through these encounters. I love adventure, anything from backpacking, rock climbing, hitchhiking to just being spontaneous. Sometimes I forget to be spontaneous, and I just need a little push to remind me of its refreshing quality, then I fall in love with it all over again.

I love to cook and bake, especially bake!! I love to build genuine relationships with others and to work together with peers to make the world a little bit better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host and surf and I tell everyone I know about couch surfing, seriously.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
