CURRENT MISSION

Education via voyeurism

ABOUT ME

I'm a California girl with a big heart, sense of humor, and passion for learning. My biggest interest right is the NEW - I'm interested in seeing, hearing, smelling, and learning everything new I can. And what the heck, I'm in Prague!

I love using exclamation points!

You would definitely not be sorry to host me: I am clean (both in body odor and personal space), friendly, quiet when I sleep but happy to chat when awake, I love animals, humans, smelling roses, eating food, music and singing aloud, and I am very grateful to you for having me - so I'll probably thank you a million times for letting me stay!

I would be most happy if you would help me explore where you live - show me what you like/don't like about your hometown/country, teach me some cool language skills, introduce me to friends/roommates/family (if you like me enough!), and I will try to reciprocate.

PHILOSOPHY

Coming soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing the globe, one beautiful, generous couch at a time. I would love to host but am currently in a roommate situation with a very adventurous kitten and for the time being, I can only be your friend.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed happily in Salzburg, Hong Kong, Prague and Germany. I am also a member of HelpExchange, through which I volunteered on an animal refuge in Spain and at a villa reconstruction in Italy.

This is the best idea EVER.

Hiking in mossy places
Speaking in parentese (see: Child Development) to babies and animals

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I love movies!
Yeah!

Books: At the moment...travel guides.

Music: I listen to all music EXCEPT music that involves screaming and banging drums - I believe the term is "death metal" and this comes in varying languages and sounds. No offense to you, it's just a preference my ears have!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I always go back to the kayaking with whales story, because if you ocean kayaked with Orcas, I think you´d be a bit excited too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I learned that there are the same number of people who have finished the Iditarod dog sled race as have climbed to the summit of Mt. Everest - what an amazing sport!
