About Me

I love the outdoors and traveling to amazing places. My goal is to see as much beauty in the world as I can. I love to backpack, hike, camp, climb and get to places you see only see on foot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The beauty of the world is made up of many things, and part of that is the culture and the people who live in it. I have enjoyed many years of traveling and staying in hostels. My favortie part of staying in hostels is the social aspect of them. It is inspiring to meet people from different places and to share experiences, even if only for a short while.

Through couchsurfing, I hope to meet the people from the places I am visiting and to learn more about their culture and way of life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am fairly eclectic. What that really means is that I get bored too easily. I like having a variety in most things. I think my tastes in books varies widely because sometimes you just read whatever you can pick up in the free bin at a hostel, or you enjoy fellow travelers' playlists.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'd like to think you don't just get to do one amazing thing, but rather you have an opportunity to live life in a way that is one long history of amazing things.

But if I had to pick one amazing thing to tell you about, I have to say that i it would be that I met and married my husband, who shares my passion for travel and not sitting still... I think that is pretty amazingly lucky. It means that I never have to give up my wanderlust and passion for an adventurous life... because my partner in crime enjoys it too!

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes.... all three... teach, learn and share. Teach others what you have to offer. Learn what others have to give you, and share your experiences with others to inspire them to find their own adventures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I hope to share and receive inspiration. I'm a believer in the idea that all of the false things that divide humanity can dissapear through meeting people and sharing meaningful time together.
