About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To bring the world closer one awesome experience at a time!

ABOUT ME

I'm an ambitious adventures woman on the go. I want to see and experience it all. I truly believe the world is mine for the taking as far as experience. I love meeting new and interesting people. I work hard at making myself a more open and loving individual. I rule. You should get to know me.

I recently moved to Madrid to start something fresh! So far I love it. Everyone is very nice and relaxed.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is mine to explore. It's yours, too so I hope to meet you along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is my passion! I just loving listening to all kinds. Slow and somber to drum n'bass. It's all cool with me. Yes, even country...I can dance to country music too so watch out!

As for movies; I too like them all...comedies, horror, action/adventure, documentaries. I like to keep my options open.

Books are something I'm more particular about. Of course, I love travel books and reading up before I go. I like books that deal with the human condition. For instance, I good author for this is A.L. Kennedy. Currently I'm reading stuff by Alain de Botton & Czeslaw Milosz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling solo through England was an accomplishment even if its been 4x over :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Always be familiar with your surroundings and carry a map for your city. Ask questions, people are nicer than they may at first appear.
