I am a positive, upbeat, hard working, gentle and loving adventurer from Texas who wants to meet others around the world and experience the many diverse cultures of the world. I keep an open mind and open heart always. I love helping people, animals and plants for the highest good. My main interests are yoga, healing arts, organic gardening, cooking and food, helping with farming, caring for those in need and traveling to see the sites and cultures of the world. In February 2015, I set out on my journey to India for my yoga teacher training for one month in Goa.... Then off to explore the rest of beautiful India!!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling solo to India and would like to meet some friends along the way and/or have a safe and comfortable place to lay my head.

This is my first trip to India and I want to meet the locals!
