CURRENT MISSION

I work hard so I can travel and play hard! Life is an adventure!

ABOUT ME

I love to travel, I am a restless spirit. I enjoy working, but am realizing I need more out of life. I am open minded and love to learn about new cultures and philosophies and ideals. I enjoy fitness, yoga, and salsa dancing. I also know a bit of bachata, cha-cha, and a very little bit of Kizomba. I love animals and grew up on a farm. I am a foodie and love to try new restaurants, I'm not the greatest cook, but I try hard! I am very motivated professionally and hope to gain more international experience in the future. I would love to spend a few years working in my professional field overseas. I don't do well in cold weather even though i'm from Wyoming. I'm scared of roaches and aliens, and I don't do well with spicy food.
When traveling I hope to see the beauty of a new country and as well as experience the genuine good nature of its citizens.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's a garden-dig it. ~ Joe Dirt

The world is a book, those who do not travel read only a page. --St. Augustine

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a few times and can't wait to do it again! I used to host, until I moved into a place where that isn't option anymore.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in Montreal and it was a great experience. I have met several people who surf and host as well.
I have hosted a few people in the past.
