CURRENT MISSION: To enjoy experiencing the beauty in people and throughout the world!
ABOUT ME: My heart belongs to Jesus. I like to laugh and love to smile. Often I dance until my feet hurt (LindyHop, Swing and Tango are my favs). I love adventure! Traveling is my passion, along with growing in my faith, live music, interior design, costuming/cosplay, biking, skating, bodyboarding and photography. I'm an event coordinator at heart and love bringing people together. I hope somehow, in some small way, my life will make a difference to the world.
PHILOSOPHY: No matter what - always love!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I couchsurf, host and would like to start or get involved with a community group in the near future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE: March 2008 I enjoyed my first couch surfing experience in Paris. It was very positive, so I tried it again in Austria. I met a wonderful family and again had a positive experience. Throughout my time in Europe, I stayed with nine different CSers...in Paris, Salzburg, Prague, Krakow, Zagreb(2), Ljubljana, Milano, Cork. Also I have stayed with CSers in the US. Baltimore, Cali, and Arkansas to name a few. In 2012 I hosted for the first time and enjoyed providing a tour of my beautiful city. I love Couchsurfing and the friendships I've made!
