Hello!
My name is Bernadette, I am a freelance writer and entrepreneur. Currently I have worked in sales and marketing for the last two years and it has stripped me of my individual creativity. I need to get that back and regroup before moving on to the next step in my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Before going back for my Masters in Psychology I want to experience as much life first hand for myself. I believe that the only way to truly see someone through an experience is to identify with it personally. I am in the process of writing my first series of short stories, they revolve around psychological, para-psychological, and sociological items/issues in the form of dark yet comical fiction pieces. I want to gain experiences through each place I stay while soaking in the culture of the surrounding area.

Music, Movies, and Books

It is easier to state what I do not like to listen too: Funk, Metal, Old school country...
I love classical (played piano for many years)
jazz (I swing dance)
EDM (Dancing in general is fun for me)
Rock (great for running)
I love to read mysteries, thrillers, anything to do with psychology, travel and geographical texts are my life blood and give me something to look forward too.

I like my movies like I like my books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

That is difficult, because what I find to be amazing may be mundane to some. So I will go with top three... I was in the military, I have been Cliff Diving,
Mission Trip to Belize (twice)
