I grew up in Georgia all my life and met my husband, Javier, here. He is Chilean and thanks to his career in soccer has been all over the world traveling. I've always admired people who had the ability to travel but because of costs I thought I never could!
Last year I was able to take my first trip to Costa Rica, and the travel bug has bit me! Like people say, once you start it's an addiction and you must have more. In a few weeks we are planning for our 2nd trip: 10 days in Colombia! We were recently married (4 weeks ago), so although this will be somewhat of a honeymoon type trip, we aren't the type of couple who likes just lying on the beach and relaxing so much as we love getting into the heart and culture of places! We're an active couple and we love the outdoors, animals, and trying new foods. Most of our favorite memories of Costa Rica involve eating, nature, or animals!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are interested in getting to know the culture and meet new people. We feel that in hotels unfortunately you miss out on a lot of that! Not to mention, its much cheaper for a better experience.

Interests

I explained some of them in the About Me section already, but I enjoy running, playing basketball, my job (helping people improve their skin), and again anything involving, animals, nature, or food! 😊
I'm currently learning Spanish, which my husband and his family speaks.
And learning to cook! So far one of the favorite thjngs I've learned is how to make homemade pizzas!
