Traveling and people are my passion! Of course I have a soft spot for animals as well! I strive to be a better person than I was yesterday by trying to something new at least once, love and opening my heart to new experiences and challenges.

I came originally from Orange County, California and majored in Theater Costuming, Japanese Language (which I can speak a little now!), and Illustration. Lived in Las Vegas for 6 1/2 years teaching children art and day camps as well as costuming for acrobats! Now in Columbus, Ohio till we (my boyfriend and I) can move to a more interesting city to our tastes.

As for travel, my first out-of-country experience was when I was still in college in 2003 to live and study in Venice, Italy. I have had the travel bug since then! Also, I have lived in Edinburgh, Scotland for a couple of years and even some time volunteering with workaway in Germany, Switzerland and even in France! Been a tourist in other places like Japan, and most of Europe.

Thanks for reading! :D

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To learn from others, see from their perspective and to help inspire others to find their passion! I won't be doing any long distance traveling for a while as I have 'settled down' per say so I wouldn't mind living vicariously through your amazing stories and lives for a short time! It would only be myself traveling alone since my boyfriend is a bit shy meeting new people-I'm the the extrovert lol.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Helped a cat at a no-kill animal shelter to be adopted that was claimed unadoptable. I was able to help him to overcome some past trauma by talking with him first evey time I came in and letting him know I respect him and that if there's anything he wanted to say, I'm here. Sometimes we need someone just to be there, and thus it changed his heart and bad habits around.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Life, travel, art and hiking! I do love learning bits of other languages, like how to greet someone. Would love the local hot spots for food and things to see/do!
