CURRENT MISSION

Traveling Europe!

ABOUT ME

My husband and I recently moved to beautiful Edinburgh! We love this city and often plan day hikes along the sea coast near by on the weekends. We also enjoy visiting different parts of Europe when we get the chance.

I grew up in beautiful, sunny, San Diego, Ca. I attended university in Idaho and New York. Then spent the next few years traveling and working in Germany, China, Alaska, and Spain. Eventually moved back to San Diego for a time to marry the love of my life, who I met in between adventures while visiting home. :) We settled in San Diego for a year and a half before backing packing Asia together for two months and then moving to Scotland.

PHILOSOPHY
Live every experience to the fullest, and when things are out of your hands and not turning out the way you expected them to then you should embrace these plot twists. Some things are meant to be even if you cannot see it in the moment. Roll with the punches, as my dad used to say. :) Choose to be happy in the place you are.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'm always happy to help or share in any way I can! I'm working as an ESL teach right now, if English is not your native language I've always very happy to help improve you spoken English, if you like. I also studied art for a number of years, if you need some help with a creative project or some instruction, I always enjoy creating new things!
