Overview
About Me
I have a passion for travel, meeting new people and there is nothing more amazing than a new place for the first time, the sights, the smell, the food, the culture and the people.. That sense of adventure and excitement when I experience something new. I have traveled throughout 20 countries so far and have met the best people.
I work hard and like to play hard as well. I love to laugh and to explore.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The experiences a person gets from travel is what pulls me. I prefer to travel without a planned itinerary or schedule and I look to do the things that the local people do. I have only done one “organized tour” which was through Turkey & although I met some people from the tour who were amazing, I felt as I was missing something. All of my other travels have been what I call “winging it”.. and those have been the best.. Set a general plan,on the way to the destination and enjoy the journey of where the wind takes you...
Interests
Sunshine, bodies of water (lakes, oceans, rivers, even pools). Swimming and waterskiing are my favorite ! Nature’s beauty and the diversity of each place I’ve seen. Architecture both natural and man-made. Food. Music and dancing, laughing and having fun. Chilling with my friends.
Live events of all kinds, concerts, festival, sporting.... Such great energy.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love all kinds of music with Rock & Roll being my fav.
I don’t watch much but when I do, comedies...
Books are really my downtime activity when I want to unwind, so like to keep them light..
