CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the world with an open ticket, timeline and mind. We are looking to step off the tourist trail and experience some of the local life wherever we go.

ABOUT ME

I am adventuring around the world with my photographer husband, which makes us a "we". We have both spent much of our 20's living and traveling all over the globe and why stop in our 30's?! We have been on the road since Nov 2010 and have an open itinerary to explore and discover new places and faces and enjoy this experience we call life.

I am a yoga teacher that loves strong coffee, wine, cheese and chocolate (it's all about balance right?) and meeting lots of people. I am also really good at cleaning up and actually enjoy doing the dishes.

Jon, my husband, is a photographer and works with small businesses as an international trade advisor. He loves beer - the good kind, great food and speaking Spanish.

Right now we are looking for kind couches and fun people who can host us and we promise to return the favour when we have a couch of our own.

PHILOSOPHY

Respect yourself. Respect others. Life is whatever you make it, so smile, explore, engage, connect and value each moment and breath:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As "surfers"

We are currently couch-less, living out of a rucksack as we travel the world. When we have a couch it will definitely be up for grabs to other surfers.

We have donate to the CS community and currently awaiting our verification postcard.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have had our first couch surfing experience and had a blast with our hosts in Toulouse.

While, not through the CS community, we have hosted a lot of travelers when we did have a couch.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can and love to teach yoga, or practice yoga with you. My "professional" background is marketing so I can help with that too,though playing around on the mat is much more fun! My husband is a photographer and can teach and share through the lens of a camera.

Meditation. Languages. Music. Writing. Arts & crafts (yes I admit it!)
