I believe that the most important part of life is the relationships one makes along the way. No matter what place or situation I'm in, its my family, friends, and sometimes random strangers who make it worthwhile. That's why I think couch-surfing is such a wonderful idea- it makes traveling as much about visiting people as it is about visiting places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to couch surfing and I am so excited to start. I look forward to meeting people around the globe!

Interests

I'm pretty easy going and enjoy doing most things- I especially love traveling, spending time outdoors, walking my two adorable dogs Nigel, reading, theater, museums, finding/writing zany postcards,corny jokes, spending time with family and friends, and adventuring in general.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen the green flash at sunset on Kee Beach in Kauai.

Teach, Learn, Share

This isn't exactly a secret, but in California there is a law that public access to the beach/coast must be allowed. This means that if you come to my hometown of Rancho Palos Verdes, CA, you can enjoy the beauty of Donald Trump's ocean-side 'Trump National Golf Course' along with adjacent walking trails, as you make your way down to the ocean.
