CURRENT MISSION

To make the world smile! :)

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new people and I think I'm pretty easy to get along with. Anyone willing to share their time and experiances with me is sooo appreciated and I will make sure to give back in return. I'm the oldest of 6 children. I have wonderful parents who have raised us all to be open-minded and considerate of others. I've traveled throughout Europe on a couple occasions-once on a pilgrimage with a church group, another time by myself, and most recently (2007) with my sister. May 2011, my sister, husband and I also traveled to Asia (South Korea). In my life, I am fortunate that I have an outgoing personality and positive interactions with others and I love meeting new people.

My newest adventure is mommyhood and I'm happy to say that I have a little one who is super easy to travel with! (No worries though, we don't tend to CS with him! 😉).

I met some awesome couchsurfers who opened their homes to me and my family during our travels and I thank each and every one of you so much! :) I hope you enjoyed your time half as much as we have!!! :)

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to help other people and to be a positive influence on others. I love to smile and I love to see others smiling, and I will go out of my way to cheer someone up!
**Smiles are contagious--INFECT THE WORLD!** :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to have a better global perspective of the world and to meet new people and see how people live differently around the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Vatican on a pilgrimmage, saw Pope Benedict and spend and amazing 3 weeks with my friend David who is now in seminary. Traveled to Germany last year, met a total stranger and had the trip of a lifetime...backpacking with my sister for over a month and couchsurfing every single night of the trip. Meeting strangers (now friends in South Korea), going to the DMZ.

I'm currently raising a little human! That's pretty darn cool (and crazy!)
