Preference to those who actively host. Make sure to mention in your request that you are ok with Luke and Leia- my toy shih tzus. MUST BE OK WITH dogs around you at all times :p

I live in St. George- use the Empire Outlets 10301 to navigate to my place. There's two ferries- one new small one for $4 that can drop you at either Vesey St. or West 38th in Manhattan OR the old big FREE ferry. Both are two blocks from my house as is the Empire Outlets.

I'm an adventurer who loves volunteering, traveling, hiking, amusement parks or haunted houses, Korean horror films, Zumba and dancing, driving around to wander aimlessly, clean eating AND cheat meals, laughing till my sides hurt and getting to know anyone I haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet. I especially love smiling for no good reason. I do everything ¡con ganas¡ :)

PHILOSOPHY

I'll try anything...twice :)

Teach, Learn, Share

My passion is women and Latinx empowerment. I love teaching people how to advocate for themselves. Being a native New Yorker, I can help you plot your daily destinations. I will overextend myself for you because it's just in my nature and I love to see others happy :)
