Lover of life. Participator not a spectator. Constantly learning, constantly growing.
I'm a young whippersnapper of American origin, currently on the road to finding a new place to raise my future children. The world is my Oyster card.
I love music, I love writing, I love participating in anything artistic. And of course I'm a thrill seeker.
Above all, I love making others happy, and have an innate talent for it. If I make 2 people smile, what I have done is already more worthwhile than just satisfying my own urges.
Be the light you wish to see.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is such a wonderful platform for connecting like-minded people! It is a seminal resource for travelers and curious hosters alike. As an expat, I move around a lot. Sometimes I need a place to crash, sometimes I just want to hang out with some people that speak English.
My hosting days were before I became active on CS, though I have always loved hosting guests. Someday I'll settle and contribute back to the CS community!
