About Me

Aloha!

I'm generally a happy person who has remained a child at heart. I'm very curious about this world and the people in it. I practice healthy living each day. I am to laugh things off and looking for the gem in everything (I promise you, it's there).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people from around the world is like traveling yourself. Everyone can teach me something and I am happy to share!

Interests

I would like to practice yoga everyday.. working on it! Acroyoga was something I did a lot in the past that I am also working on getting back into. I like to rock climb and weight lift various days of the week. I am at my happiest when active and outdoors (regardless of weather!). I like to swing dance and have danced tango in the past (looking to get back into it). I appreciate the collaboration and listening required in partner dancing. I'm currently working on my drawing and painting skills. I'd like to include Vipassana meditation as another part of my daily practices. I am in the process of applying for Masters in Nutrition programs and would subsequently like to apply to Osteopathic medical school (currently working as a massage therapist in the meantime). Now, tell me about you?!
