CURRENT MISSION

To find inspiriation in the people and places I visit. Oh, and to climb some of the tallest mountains.

ABOUT ME

I am a social entrepreneur that recently started a clothing company that advocates for healthy body image and promotes beauty coming from within. The name of the company is The Monument of Our Hearts and the website is www.tmooh.com if you want to check it out.

During the last year, I took on the adventure of a lifetime when I went on the American TV show, Survivor: Samoa. I survived 38 out of 39 days in the wild and proved a lot of things to myself while being in such an extreme situation.

Things I love: family, authentic friendships, mountains, outdoors, unbeaten paths, color, art, adventure, and meeting new people :)

PHILOSOPHY

In my every breath, I breathe to engage others and help those around me. It is in those moments that I feel most alive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love couchsurfing because it's a way gain a locals viewpoint of places you visit, straying away from the beaten path and tourist hot spots to truly breathe in a more authentic cultural experience. But, more then that, it allows you to meet some truly remarkable people!
