Hi! I'm a full time traveler with my service dog Komos! I work in photography which lets us travel but we also go between states volunteering at animal rescues..I dabbled in wildlife conservation in school before looking to become more active in the field. Before this, I owned an in home daycare and did that for about 6 years.

Komos is a Rhodesian / Boxer mix. Friendly and very very well trained. He is my right hand man and provides a necessary service that I am rather private about.. He loves company and getting love. Plays well with other dogs and likes cats although, not all like him..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is a great way to get to know new people and take a peek at other versatile / unique lifestyles. My tent ensures Komos and I have our necessities without being in your way.

We don't mind a spare couch for the night. If staying for 3+ nights we will typically try to find a large yard where we can set up our tent but that is not mandatory.

I have hosted people in my home before and have been hosted in a bunch of states while working. Some of the best individuals I've met have been here!

I can be a quite person although I enjoy making new friends. I like going out and exploring new areas but also can be known to keep to myself

Interests

Hobbies include a lot of reading, sketching, walks/hikes and aerial arts (lyra and chinese pole..think cirque de solei). I love to bake and had a small baking business for my daycare families for a bit..creating and decorating is the best part next to knowing it tastes great!

Music, Movies, and Books

survival books..Swiss Family Robinson and Julie of the Wolves are childhood favorites!

I listen to all music types except heavy metal..if it sounds good, I am happy with it and I will never disrespect someones home by blasting my own music..I have headphones :)

Movies? Not horror. It's that simple!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

the daycare... the travel... volunteer... photography? I am not sure how to answer this...I live my life in a way that makes me happy. What makes me happy is helping others and adding light to their day somehow. I'm a pisces with an aries uprising so..it's just who I am :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning new things..new experiences and skill sets! I aim to be well rounded.
