NOTE: I am only open to hosting Italian or French people at the moment. I am learning these languages and would like to practice.

CURRENT MISSION

to live life in the most creative and fullest way possible.

ABOUT ME

I love art and cooking (actually, eating) and nature and traveling. If you'd like to meet me first on Zoom or FaceTime, I'm open to that.

PHILOSOPHY

The universe is ultimately good. Giving to others is giving to yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

* Priority is given to those with hosting experience.

I live in a popular city. I also have a roommate. In order to be considerate, I'm trying to limit couchsurfers to one visit a month. I also do my best to be as available and hospitable as possible. This is a lot of fun, but also a lot of work. So please understand if I can't host everybody.
PLEASE READ: we must confirm a TIME, PLACE, and DATE, no matter what either you or I say. Otherwise, I assume you are not coming.

Also, I have no problem being used as a "free hostel." If you are cool and polite and generous, then if you just need my place to sleep, that's fine.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It actually takes a lot of work and time to find someone on-line that you think you connect with. That said, all my CS experiences have been pretty great; a couple surf interactions even changed my life for the better.

I've been getting a lot of requests (which is cool), and even if I don't ever get to meet you, I hope you live some fantastic adventures in this great big world.

Interests

I like to expose myself to as many different situations and people as possible. I like to read, LOVE music and art. I know how to cook. I love animals and insects (at the moment I want to learn more about bees). I love film (tv, not so much).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The crystal blue oceans of Asia. All the flowers and plants that grow in Los Angeles and California. The generosity of the Italian people. I am PROUD to be a Texan!

Teach, Learn, Share

In my humble opinion, there is still nothing much classier than a handwritten thank-you note.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation (I hope). I know how to clean up after myself. If you're cool, I'd love to cook something with you.
