About Me

I'm an easy-going woman and I enjoy meeting people from all over the world. I think it's important to be an open to all cultures, backgrounds and life choices.

PHILOSOPHY

Help others, learn from your mistakes and enjoy life. I am a bit of a minimalist and believe more in accumulating experiences rather than possessions. My dream is to one day establish a self-sustaining tiny house community/retreat where people and animals can go for trauma, addiction and hospice care.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My favorite parts of visiting a country are the people, the food, the nature and the dancing, generally in that order. :)

Couchsurfing and hosting is my favorite way to travel because I like gaining new perspectives from all the people I meet.

I've enjoyed couchsurfing in several countries and have had a great time hosting as well.
