CURRENT MISSION

Freedom

ABOUT ME

Hey everyone, my name's Joy. I'm finally putting into action whats been a dream for many years. I'm beginning my traveling. I want to see the whole world and not affirm the little bubble I'm in as it. I want to connect with people, make music, make art, enjoy nature, share experiences, Sip on some tea and laugh, sit around a fire, and just enjoy life.

PHILOSOPHY

"You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom." Malcolm X

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've stayed with a couple of couch surfers across the USA and I can't wait until I get the chance to return the favor!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had nothing but very positive experiences. It's great when complete strangers can meet up, trusting each other, and have an amazing outcome of interaction, connection, and just an overall pleasant experience. Couch surfers were so kind and considerate. I've learned so much from everyone I've encountered during my travels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been on plenty of beautiful mountains and hiking trails:-talcott mountain-penwood state park-Spoonville cliff-Bear mountainand those are just a few.I have been to France which was an enriching experience. It was my first time leaving the country and flying on a plane. I hope to go back soon. I've traveled across the country in a month and got the chance to see the grand canyon, yellow stone national park, and Yosemite, which were all breathtaking.

I've biked from Bronx, NY to Chesire, CT. This definitely taught me the meaning of "mind over matter."

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn and have a wide variety of interests. You more than likely are teaching me without knowing and hopefully I can do the same for you. Life is one big learning experience. I love to share happiness.
