CURRENT MISSION

I can't wait until June...time to travel again!

ABOUT ME

I'm a California girl through and through. No matter where the world takes me I always find my way back to the California coast. I love the ocean and the water; I could spend hours in the sea. I live for travel, however. I've been a lot of places in my life and fully intend to go to as many more as possible. I miss my travels.  I can't wait to see as much of Europe as possible in the summer.

PHILOSOPHY

"All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better."- Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today." -James Dean

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As of right now I'm living with a host family in Sevilla so sharing a couch is not an option. I'd be more than willing to do it when I'm back in California however.

I am just starting out with couch surfing. I heard about it through a friend who did it through out Europe. I'm a newbie...just trying it on for size I suppose.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmm...I went to Haiti last Spring with my mother. We worked in an orphanage and a hospice and also just traveled around the slums and visited schools and an agricultural center that we helped fund. It was incredible, yet horrendously depressing, to see how some people live in this world.
