About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Settling in San Los Angeles, traveling and pursue a career in what I love, Art!

ABOUT ME

I'm artist at heart and a politician in the mind. Traveling is in my blood. Every few months I organize a trip and love meeting people and experiencing different cultures along the way. I'm an old soul, love to interpretive dance and have a good time no matter where I find myself. Very easy going, very outgoing.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, do everything that is possible while you have the time and opportunity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I show Couchsurfers around San Francisco. I love to share the beauty of this city with travelers. I also couchsurf myself time to time while solo traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had my first CouchSurfing experience in Jan.2011 in San Francisco,California and fell in love with it.It's a great way to meet new people and find the hidden gems of the city you're visiting.

My husband was my first couchsurfing host in 2011 and we married in 2012!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Went to Haleakalā in Maui and watched the sunset from the top of the valcano.
-Went to the Grand Canyon-stunning!
-Climbed Bell Rock in Sedona, AZ
-Climbed the Atlas Mountain range in Morocco and swam underneath the waterfalls at the top! Unreal!
-Walking across Abbey Road in London! Huge dream come true for a Beatles' fan.
Climbing up the stairs of the Eiffel Tower...makes you appreciate the view that much more!

Teach, Learn, Share

Mmmmmm....What would I like to teach/learn/share during CouchSurfing experiences? Well...

Teach: Its all mind over matter. Life is what you make it. Ask me the personal details of this, and you're in for a long, but good story.

Learn: To further appreciate life by interacting with individuals from around this big, beautiful globe...to live in the moment...to never pass up an opportunity because hey, life is short, and you never know when you may be back in that location again or if that opportunity will arise a second time...And lastly to continue to push myself to the limits, learn more about myself, and see that as along as I have myself and depend on myself,I'm going to be jussssst fine (no matter where I may find myself).

Share:My optimism and love for life and all the adventures that come with it.
