About Me

I’m easygoing, respectful, and enjoy simple living, especially near the beach. I like swimming, walking, and good conversation. I’m interested in personal growth and learning from different cultures.
I recently stayed at a hostel in the Philippines for 2 months, where I was clean, respectful, and easy to live with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m traveling on a budget and prefer real experiences over hotels. I enjoy meeting locals and connecting on a human level rather than just being a tourist. I’m respectful, clean, and easy to get along with.

Interests

I enjoy simple living near the beach, swimming, walking, hiking and good conversation. I’m into personal growth, forgiveness work, and learning from different cultures. I like meeting people, hearing their stories, and keeping life light and positive.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy a mix of music depending on the mood—anything from classic hits to something mellow. I like books and conversations. I’m not big on TV, but I enjoy a good movie now and then.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to the Philippines and built a new life later in life. It’s taught me a lot about adapting, staying open, and appreciating simple things.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share life experience, perspective, and conversations about personal growth and forgiveness. I’m always open to learning about local culture, daily life, and new ways of thinking. I believe everyone has something to teach.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I offer kindness, openness, and a willingness to help however I can. I enjoy contributing, keeping things easy, and building a genuine connection with my host.
