About Me

I love dessert and I skeeve mayo.

I also dislike writing about myself, ironically, because I'm a freelance writer.

I've found such gratuity for life and genuine happiness from traveling and I'm here to meet like minded people wherever I may get lost...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for a new way to meet locals while on the go. I love to travel and appreciate a more authentic experience than standing next to people with fanny packs, visors and knee high socks oogling at an attraction for 4 minutes before moving on to the next.

Interests

Well traveling, obv. I prefer reading to reality tv.

I actually don't really like much of any tv, except game of thrones of course. (After all, there is an exception to every rule.)

I'm just getting into photography and writing is one of my biggest passions.

A great cup of espresso, sunset skies that turn pink, the sound of waves hitting the shore, the feeling you get when you exit the airport in a new city.. All things that peak my interest.🙃

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a little of everything from Benny Goodman to Adele to Jay Z to The Beach Boys to Carrie Underwood and a little of electric pop somewhere in there as well. Don't really discriminate when it comes to music!

a few favorite movies, in no particular order: gladiator, the blue lagoon, hunger games (don't judge me!).

Huge fan of both the Harry Potter books and movies.

Marcus Aurelius' meditations will forever and always be my favorite read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the fact that I've managed to live the last eight years without clocking into "a real job" is "pat on the back" worthy.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have an online and digital marketing company and I work with people to turn their dreams into realities. I've pretty much mastered the art of social media, would love to help anyone start to chase their passions.

I'm also not a stranger to the kitchen and specialize in Italian home cooking, my mother started teaching me her recipes when I was still too short to see over the counter.

My thumb is particularly green, as well. I love to garden, specifically organic gardening and can help anyone in any space grow herbs, veggies and more. Even in tiny apartments with no outdoor space, where there's a will; there's a way!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A genuine appreciation for life. I've been told I'm pretty funny (but don't ask me to tell you a joke on the spot!) I can also be really quiet and keep to myself if that's your type thing. Extremely respectful and easy going. Would love to cook dinner for anyone hosting me!
