About Me

My family:
I grew up in sunny California and later lived in Hawaii for 10 years. My husband and I have 5 year old twins (boy/girl) and a 3 year old son. We recently moved from warm Hawaii to Cold Boston, Massachusetts. Our Family is very close. We love to Travel, Surf and eat yummy food. I have taken my 3 children on a road trip around the USA and loved every minute of it. We road trip and fly frequently. We love the ocean and having a good time. My kids are very funny and very nice to be around....I have been told that by almost everyone who has met them. We love outdoor board sports, eating meals as a family and exploring new places. We have a small family travel website and our goal is to encourage others to travel with their children, It is the best education you can give your children. My family also has a passion for dressing up. My Instagram (@thejollyholiday)is loaded with costume pictures!

Me:
I love to travel, Surf, fashion, eat delicious food, and I love to laugh. I love being around happy optimistic people. I love to wash other peoples dishes (but i hate doing dishes at my own house) I love to make enchiladas and guacamole I am really good at Karaoke (singing Cher songs are my specialty). I won a karaoke competition singing "Baby got Back" by Sir Mix a lot. I feel the world is very small and I love making new friends all over the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am couchsurfing to get a locals point of view of the places we visit. I want learn about the area from people that are passionate about their town and to know what is the best food to eat, the fun secret places to visit, and to make more friends. I prefer to stay at a friends house when traveling because you have more time to chat and have good conversations, you cant get much of that in a hotel room by yourself. If traveling with my kids I would choose homes with kids so that my children can play and make friends around the world as well as myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got our car stuck in the sand near a watering hole on a safari in South Africa on my honeymoon. We almost could not get the car unstuck and had to dig the tires out of the sand while African wild life moved in closer and closer. We were off the path and would not have been found for a long time. I am usually not scared of anything but I was sure I was going to die and be a lions dinner.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am good at teaching women to surf (women listen better)

I can share stories, food, health tips, and I have loads of useless information in my brain regarding the building of Disneyland, The old Worlds Fair and Old TV Shows. I also do dishes!
