About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a traveling fortune cookie of sorts. Don't be afraid to be alone, it means you're growing. Good things are about to happen.

PHILOSOPHY

"You have only to believe what you wish to achieve"- Hot Rod

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We have a passion for traveling, cooking and hospitality. It's very natural for me to host. We also don't like creating waste and think couchsurfing is a good way to share and trade on a human level.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Many experiences. I've hosted three people at a time, hosted one person for an entire month! I have hosted in several countries and have couch surfed myself across several continents. I may not be alive today if it weren't for couchsurfing. It has kept me safe from many nights on the streets and introduced me to some great friends.
