About Me

An update on my profile... I’m now currently traveling Europe and Africa for 8 months... no special plans, just going and growing wherever the vibe takes me, or whatever vibe I attract 🙏🏼. My year and a half in India and Thailand were perfect to introduce me into the life of a solo traveler, although a difficult way of living at times and uncomfortable, I’m humbled by the experiences that are now my memories and biggest life lessons. I adore meeting people and sharing stories in hopes of healing and becoming more open to a community way of life, rather than a sheltered one...

I have dreams. Dreams that i manifest and set up a vibrational grid for law of attraction to grant daily. Im growing through an awakening period in which im accepting that my purpose here is far more grand than sitting at a desk in an office. Im on a journey through self healing, as someone who has died twice, had over 10 surgeries, uterine tumors, pcos, depression, epilepsy and lack of motivation to live the best of lives i was put here to do, i know the importance of smiling and seeing the good in people/places/things/occurances. In march i start my backpacking trip to asia. For the first month and a half i will be in india at an ayurveda center treating my epilepsy. I started treatment here by eating a plant based diet, quitting the 5000 mg a day medications, practicing meditation and yoga, journaling, breathing exercises etc etc however a part of me still feels conditioned to the American way of treating sickness whenever i have a seizure. After much research im cconfident that india has the natural remedies for my condition and conditioned thinking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In preparation for my travels in South East Asia i was inspired by a youtube video "How to Sleep for Free while Traveling" and one of the ten ways mentioned was couchsurfing. After watching the video I was over whelmed with certainty and excitement to join CouchSurfers.com to met/learn so many people across the world.

Interests

Im most interested in learning... I love the vulnerability and the humbled feeling i experience when stepping foot in unknown territory. Day to day i practice everything i do/feel/say with ease, ive learned that if "you cannot change it, why are you worrying," "if you can change it, why are you worrying?" 6 months ago is when i began focusing on what i do want rather what i dont want. Unhealthy and eager for change is when i changed my thoughts and took responsibility for my life. Just 6 months ago i was dependent on medications/doctors and others unaware of the lack of self love and trust of my inner being. It was when a dear friend said to me "you are your own creator/destroyer that i started to reflect in everything/one around me. I noticed that my surroundings did not align with my desires and that i had the power to change that and thats exactly what i did. I now find myself interested in healing myself through nature and overall happiness and sharing all the love and peace i gather along the way.
