ABOUT ME

I am very friendly and expressive. I am excited to share experiences with other friendly and trustworthy people!

I love making friends and cherishing the relationships I have already built. My driving passions in life are music, languages & photographic arts.

I love being outdoors, eating fresh foods, hiking, biking, yoga, and doing sportly activities.

PHILOSOPHY

I find that honesty, hard work, and optimism are the keys in our own idea of "success". I am very happy to hear you preach what you believe in as long as you are passionate, honest, and not aggressive or forceful. I may not believe the same things, but I still want to be your friend. I enjoy diversity and variety. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Giving your couch a sleeper, cleaning up after myself, being a respectful and appreciative guest, and making friends and memories from the experience.

Eventually I will have a couch to offer for another Surfer.

I will always leave a place as it were, or in a better state.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couch surfing experience is slim, but I'm excited to share more stories while traveling!

Interests

I love people with energy and smiles & even so, I enjoy documenting most things. I enjoy sweets, fruits, pastel colors, penguins, dogs, flowers, and so many other things. I love to walk, run, and do yoga. I enjoy smelling the fresh air and watching the sky change. I also don't have much time to relax, but I read for enjoyment.
