About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see and experience world's smiling faces and bright eyes!

ABOUT ME

I enjoy traveling during my summer breaks. I love meeting new people and learning from different cultures. I like to spend time in the outdoors, which is hard in south Florida.

PHILOSOPHY

Make time for things that are important.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy hanging out at the CS events and could make time to take day trips to the Everglades or the the Keys on the weekend (with enough planning and lead time).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not officially hosted or surfed, but I have met-up w/ visiting surfers to show them some sights in South Florida a few times with my CouchSurfing sister--seeing the spirit the CS community really inspired me to join.

Interests

The outdoors, biking, snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, food/wine/beer. I'm not into the club scene, but I do enjoy a relaxed evening out. I like to try new things!

I prefer the Fort Lauderdale scene, over the Miami scene--though I like a little Cuban coffee on Calle Ocho every so often.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was amazed by the Alps on the border of Germany & Austria. I hiked up the glacier and drank water from the melt water--best water ever!

Teach, Learn, Share

I to learn about culture & language. I love doing 'local' stuff--I'll try anything at least once.

I love to share! Meet me and find out...but usually food or a beer.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to travel and carry a souvenir as a gift.

Countries I’ve Visited
