I'm a world traveler and adventurous soul who believes life is all about the experiences we accumulate and the connections we make with others. I believe in a lifetime of self-development, because we're always a work in progress and it's our responsibility to become the best version of ourselves we can possibly be at any given moment and therefore, I consider myself a student in life. I look forward to a life of continuous learning.

I am intelligent, well-traveled, social, friendly, kind, thoughtful, have a good sense of humor and I appreciate the same in others. I'm also reflective, diverse in my upbringing, so I can appreciate diversity in all it's beautiful forms and I enjoy having new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy life and everything it has to offer and it's always more fun when sharing it with others. I'm a people person, social, friendly and enjoy getting to know people and finding out what their passionate about and what lights them up inside.

I also enjoy getting to know places like a local, instead of a tourist and finding out all the special places the tourists don't know about. There's nothing quite like getting the local experience of a place.

Interests

I enjoy all water sports such as kayaking, stand-up paddle, jet skiing, sailing, etc. I also enjoy hiking, movies, yoga, the theater, wine tasting, BBQ's, outdoor and live concerts in general, spending time with friends, reading, meditation, connecting with like-minded people, and I also know how to enjoy my own downtime. I'm always ready to start a new adventure by discovering a new place (city, country, continent, local spot), learning something new or making new friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a wide range of taste when it comes to music. What I listen to varies with my mood or state of mind. Love comedies, action films, adventurous, romantic comedies, some Sci-Fi. I read a lot of self-development books and books about Universal Laws, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I started acting in my 40's and in my very first film, I was a background actor for a feature, 20th Century Fox film starring Zac Efron, Anna Kendrick and Adam Devine, where I filmed for over a month and a half with them in the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii ;-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share stories, resources and wonderful company with my hosts. I have lived in 7 U.S. states, 5 countries, and 2 continents. Have visited a lot more U.S. states from east to west coast, north to south, the Pacific and have visited countries in Europe, South America and North America.

I have also lived multiple lives, as my career and interests have changed drastically from communications/IT to real estate, financial services, network marketing, entrepreneur, business consultant, professional house and pet sitter, acting and the list goes on, so I have much to share in that arena as well.
