About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

A real flower child, having been around the world three times by the age of 17...and eager for more!

Growing up as a hippy kid, I did my best to adapt to the various places my mother chose to stay in...After a long soccer career, I now find myself looking for the What Now?

So, I am traveling around the world to see how life is in other places, imbibe the culture and essence and then see where I want to live!

I am athletic, yet, love interesting conversation, people and places.

Surprises and wonderful coincidences fascinate and delight me.

I love to joke and laugh and have a good time in company!

PHILOSOPHY

Live it! All the way. Travel, have fun, leave a smile in my tracks!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Teach, Learn, Share

Coaching through questions and listening and sharing.

Maybe even some Numerology.
