CURRENT MISSION

To get as much out of life as possible. To find beauty in everything.

ABOUT ME

I love new places and people, and am so grateful to have been able to experience so many wonderful ones. I am considerate of other people, and it is what I appreciate most in other people. I am curious and passionate about so many things. I love to be outdoors and active. I live for genuine conversation, open communication and the friendships they create.

PHILOSOPHY

My old landlord's motto was "every day above ground is a good day." I love this because it puts life into perspective. There are so many possibilities, and it's important to remember that we aren't here forever!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to this community, but have been couchsurfing unofficially for a few years. I love that it provides the opportunity to get to know wonderful people in a way most people don't experience.

Interests

Yoga, hiking and backpacking, kayaking, running, reading, being outside in general, gardening, and good music.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love classic rock, Johny Cash, Elliott Smith, Bob Dylan. I read a lot of Steinbeck, and a few contemporary authors like Cormac Mccarthy and Jonathan Safron Foer. The Giving Tree, Harlod and the Purple Crayon and The Litte Prince are dear to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Most people just want to be happy. Beyond that, I'm not sure. OH. I also have learned that it feels bad to think bad things about other people. I want to learn to be more compassionate.
