ABOUT ME

I am quite laid back, enjoying staying in with friends one night and going out to the beach or downtown the next. I love to dance and lie in the sun and test my bravery with new experiences. I cherish meaningful conversations and all my friends know I have a passion for travel that needs to be satisfied before I settle down!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The people I've met through this site are amazing and I love making connections with other travellers and hosts. Also, the generosity of hosts is heartwarming and makes my trips that much more wonderful! I plan host when I have my own place....that doesn't have mould and mice as some have in the past...

Interests

I work a lot and enjoy engaging with customers, but my friends are who I spend the most time with. We love talking and sharing what's going on in our lives whether at the beach, someone's kitchen or a parked car! I am always trying to learn new dance moves, read ALL the books and learn more about global affairs. I love learning about economics and how the world works.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Beijing in 2009 with some of my closest friends and we got to have the most awesome water fight during a crazy rainstorm that left us completely drenched and way more bonded.

Also riding a camel in the Sahara and a breathtaking night under the stars there.
And exploring Tito's abandoned 'summer home' in Croatia

Teach, Learn, Share

Every person I meet teaches me something new from the best sights in Croatia to why you don't cheers with beer in Hungary to how a maple syrup farm works and how watching Top Gear can change your life!
My lesson: What doesn't hurt you is worth learning more about with an open mind because it could just be the next great thing in your life

What I Can Share with Hosts

My generosity, I don't have a specific skill that I excel at, but I'm great at finding out what makes individual people happy and showing them that I care. Also, I can cook meals that might not wow you, but will let you relax for a night :) I love games and kids and I'm good for a laugh (though terrible at accents).
