CURRENT MISSION

To find happy people who make others happy too.

ABOUT ME

I am a recent graduate from The University of San Diego but I will forever search the world for hidden lessons. I love to learn new things whether it be a new way to tie my shoes or how to cook the most fanciful dish. I can picture myself as an 80-year-old woman still attending classes and learning from all my grandkids.

My friends describe me as bold, lively, beautifully honest, creative, fearless, and determined. I strongly believe that when someone promises to do something, they should do it and I take this philosophy to the fullest. I put my heart and soul into everything I do, from the smallest of tasks to the most intricate projects.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe the universe is made up of thread-like energies that connect each human being. The law of attraction is also important to me. I understand the universe as an organism and if you treat it with positive energy it will treat you kindly in return.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing for now until I return home after my summer of travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed several times with my friends in Japan, China, Vietnam, India, and Mauritius. I hope to be a host for others in San Diego so I can pay it forward and share the world with other!

Interests

I love to play beach volleyball, both for fun and competitively. I will play pretty much any sport on the planet! One of my favorite hobbies is to create art. I draw, paint, build, and write short stories and poems.
