CURRENT MISSION

Live life to the fullest.

ABOUT ME

I am passionate about life and living it to the fullest. I am a renaissance woman and do a little bit of everything. After finishing my masters degree in Organizational Business Communications and working several years in marketing I decided to pursue my passion as a performance artist . I am a professional acrobat specializing in aerial silks, aerial hoop, contortion, duo acrobatics, and ballroom dance. I love what I do and pushing the boundaries of what is humanly possible. I lead an active lifestyle and practice yoga regularly, go rock climbing or bouldering weekly, and enjoy hiking, wind surfing, scuba diving, skiing, bike riding, going to concerts, stand up comedy, karaoke, costume parties...the list goes on. I am always doing something creative like oil painting, photography, making costumes, or some craft. I have a diverse group of friends, usually keep a pretty full social agenda, and love to plan gatherings and parties. I also love good food, wine,cooking and am always seeking out cool new restaurants, great wines, and trying out new recipes.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, make the most of the time you have.
Stop dreaming, start doing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love new experiences, meeting new people, and exploring the world. I am very open minded and embrace people of all races, cultures, and orientation. I love to have fun, let loose, and be outgoing, but in a safe and healthy environment. I am very clean, respectful, easy going, and get along with everyone.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met so many awesome people through couchsurfing. I would much rather crash on a couch and make an awesome new friend rather than stay in a fancy hotel. I will always return the favor for my hosts.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a student for life and love expanding my knowledge and understanding of the world and people. I love diversity and can't really choose a particular 'type' of person I enjoy meeting and learning from most. I love people that are unique, have depth, and are vibrant, as well as those who are relaxed, chill, and composed. I like people who are passionate about life and living it to the fullest like me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am very clean, respectful, gracious, and always bring something local to share with my hosts, usually consumable (wine, chocolate, hot sauce, etc.) , as a thank you...or I am always happy to share yoga, acrobatic, stretching, hand balancing, or circus related skills with those interested.
