CURRENT MISSION

See the world, meet new people, learn new things, broaden my horizons, have fun, feel young! All of the above!

ABOUT ME

I am fun-loving student! I love to read, write and paint. I grew up in a little farm house in Maine. I love the outdoors and meeting new people! I am currently working on a book that I hope to complete in the next year.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we are given this life to love others abundantly. I love to love on others! I think that extending a helping hand and being kind to a stranger bonds people more intimately than we know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to broaden my horizons by experiencing other cultures and having an open mind. I hope that I will also be able to share my life and my culture, believes, and good company with others! As soon as I get a place and a couch STOP ON BY!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Right now I am living with a 60+ year old woman in Barcelona. She is great! There are so many awesome ways that we do not see eye to eye and I just take it as experiential, up close and personal learning about another culture! Haha! No seriously, I am loving staying with her!
