CURRENT MISSION

Live a life well-pursued and full of happiness

ABOUT ME

It's hard to describe "everything about me" in a short space, but I'll do my best: I love a life of adventure. This includes your typical outdoor explorations such as hiking, biking, running, sight-seeing. I'm also an enthusiast for cooking, photography and laughter with friends. I try to spend time enjoying the simple things but gravitate towards the more extravagant explorations of foreign travel, art, great literature, and music. I'm up to learn new things good or bad whenever I can.

PHILOSOPHY

to have ambition and seek it through joy

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to communicate stories or ideas and hear them in return or just exploring a new place and then sharing that place with someone who's never been.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've spent a couple of nights couchsurfing at others' houses, but I've spent more time as hostess to friends and couchsurfers alike. I love playing hostess when I can to see the look on a visitor's face when he/she sees something new and awe-inspiring. Fortunately for me, I'm often traveling to see some of those beautiful sights myself, but if I'm home and have space, I'll host you and show you a good time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've seen is the children born into nothing striving for everything and being the smallest part of that.
