CURRENT MISSION

To find a place to stay while traveling to keep my cost down and meet new people who love to travel and explore all the world has to offer.

ABOUT ME

Love the outdoors and traveling all over the world. I also enjoy hanging out at my own or friends homes playing card/board games with a good micro brew or nice red wine with good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

LIFE IS TOO SHORT!! I live life to the fullest, not wasting any moment or possibility to experience something new and meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am talking to all my friends and past geography classmates about joining to help this wonderful project continue to grow world wide.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

With my travels in Europe, Canada, Alaska and the Philippines over the last 15 years there were always generous people you would meet that would welcome you into there home without knowing anything about you except the last hour you spent in a bar or restaurant. I am so ecstatic about having a place to organize it and plan it out now.

Interests

hiking, backpacking, mountaineering, climbing, camping, cycling, skiing/snowboarding, rafting, traveling anywhere, tending to my organic garden full of yummy veggis, and spending time with my huge family.

Music, Movies, and Books

'Music is the shorthand of emotion' and I love it ALL.
I love getting lost in a good movie or book, and Willa Cather is still my favorite author, with too many others to name.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well I don't want to brag about how amazing I am, so I'll share what I've seen... A little girl bathing her brother in the street, eagles teaching their fledgling to fly, generosity of people all over the world willing to give you their last food/clothing/ect., alpenglow from many mountain ranges, getting to walk to work through a field of edelweiss for 6 months, and witnessing the bravery, tenacity and strength of my mother.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll have to get back to you... but I have many stories to share from bizarre to hilarious.
