CURRENT MISSION

To meet all the awesome walks of life this world has to offer. =)

ABOUT ME

I work in the camera department in the film industry in Los Angeles, CA but my family lives in little Midwest Ohio, so long trips home for Christmas are a must. I used to travel everywhere with my dogs, but they have both passed, so I'm always eager to stay places I might get to share with a dog or two. I swim, bike, run, kayak, rock climb, hike and camp (never enough though), scuba, sail, love to be outside and walking for hours, photographing/filming wildlife.

PHILOSOPHY

I certainly don't live life enough. I'd love to learn to fly a helicopter, and paraglide but honestly i just dont have the money! haha BUT, some of the finest things in life are free. I'd say I'm usually smiling =)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to this, so I haven't participated much. But my goal is to keep my place open wherever i am.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My mom is a Russian/German teacher, so we got to go on a lot of trips to Russian, and Odessa and we always stayed with friends while we were there. I loved to see the different cultures and be imbedded in another lifestyle instead of just seeing a city superficially from a hotel window. Ever since those trips ive been addicted to traveling and meeting new people. I travel for work a lot and love to meet locals.
