About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore and adore!

ABOUT ME

The mountains are a great place to live providing a great balance in life. I enjoy working as little as possible so I can concentrate on outdoor activities. I like to visit new places, embrace different cultures, indulge in international cuisines and make new friends. Athletically, you can find me on the mountain snowboarding or mountain biking but I also like to pass a soccer ball around, hike to awe-inspiring locations, and simply hang out at the beach.

PHILOSOPHY

Roam, explore the world....it is surrounded by beauty. Enjoy your surroundings, stay positive, smile, invite people into your life. Be not afraid to ask questions...it is the best way to learn!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Fresh to the community but feel somewhat a participant already! Have hosted many guests at my place previously and enjoy the company of meeting international free spirits.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Thank goodness to the generous people in this world. Opening doors and providing opportunities. While travelling Argentina I have met a very lovely couple on the bus from Iguazu to Buenes Aires. They invited me to there home for dinner and to meet with their family. A great experience to have home cooked meals true to their nationality in the company of great people. Furthermore, as I travel west throughout the Country to Mendoza, Argentina, I was put up at their sisters place. What a great experience in the heart of wine country!
Living in a resort town myself I am surrounded with tourists. Knowingly, I live in a great place which has a lot to offer. So as an appreciation for all the love and support I have recieved in the past during my travels, showing people around and providing direction comes naturally.
