I’m a fun-loving, adventurous Southern Bell living my dream life in Las Vegas. My days are spent educating our future leaders, hitting the gym, and meeting up with friends for coffee dates & nature walks. My nights are spent out in the city with the crew killin’ it at karaoke, enjoying live music, and shakin’ my behind on the dance floor. When I get time off you’ll find me heading to the airport, out in nature, and/or road tripping the western states.

Boys, I have a partner, am monogamous, and am not looking to ‘upgrade’ on my already idealistic life. So, please just DON’T with that energy in any way. Thanks in advance for your self control.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Let’s start with what frustrates me with being on CS…

***It saddens me that I feel a need to express this but I’ve constantly been being approached my men since recently rejoining who think this is a dating platform and are obviously using it to obtain something physically and/or romantic on here. (It wasn’t like this before and you who are treating it as such are ruining the community, are actually creating the mass exodus of wonderful women travelers from CS, and should be ashamed of your inappropriate behavior.)

Boys, do NOT contact me in any way! My couch is NOT available for male travelers to request and I do NOT want to meet you for an alcohol beverage one-on-one; that’s a date! This is NOT a dating app! If you’re a male with a very healthy profile (no shirtless pics, not only female friends/reviews, and a plethora of reviews with an absent of negative reviews, etc.) there’s a chance I will offer my place to you if you have a thoughtful public trip posted, which reflects the true CouchSurfing spirit. (If you are looking to date, hope to hookup, or are wanting something romantic to evolve from connecting with women while traveling, you should download Tinder and swipe until you get carpal tunnel.)

I only welcome platonic friendships from connections on here. If we meet and you find me to be what you think is playful, generally nice to you, and more kind than women usually treat you, please do not mistake it for flirting; I’m a dynamic and outgoing woman with EVERYONE, ALWAYS. (A woman will let you know in no uncertain terms if she wants you as more than a friend. Hold your horses & don’t be a pushy douche.)

For those of you that have had meaningful, mutually-beneficial physical and romantic dynamic and relationships produced as a result of your participation here I don’t judge you while simultaneously applauding you IF it came from a spontaneous, non-manipulative place. It’s simply not what I want from my experience here!

I’m only interested in creating lasting friendships and desire for them to be with people of all backgrounds, religions, cultures, orientations, races, genders & identities, ages, classes, etc. If you don’t share this desire please don’t waste my time as we are too dissimilar and view the world too differently to relate well enough to be friends.***

So, why am I here? Why not!? CouchSurfing has been so good to me in the past when I slow-traveled for several seasons with an ex and hosted travelers together in our home. … It’s time to give back as a host in the happening city of Vegas and begin planning travels of my own!
(Female contact only please.)

Music, Movies, and Books

All the music! (I’m a competitive karaoke queen) Movies are fun too, especially romcoms. I read non-fiction fairytale-type stories from time-to-time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In my late teen years I fundraised for months so I could volunteer in outreach within the poorest areas of South America, primarily with orphans, for the majority of a year.

Teach, Learn, Share

Every day! It’s my passion and profession. Ask me more when we meet if you like.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My travels are currently limited to work related or visiting current friends and family. I will update this section when my travel status changes. But, what I believe hosts should expect from a traveler within this community is a non-transactional connection with an intention to make it deep, meaningful, and possibly enduring connection. This means being available with ample time and positive energy, planning to do things like share a meal(s) together, join a host to see life as a local experiences an area, and being genuinely interested in knowing your host while being open and vulnerable enough to be known in return.
