Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To learn something new each day, to let go of anxiety and an ideal of perfection, and put a smile on someone else's face. To learn more about how people are living and what people call home
Para aprender algo nuevo cada dia, para dejar la anciedad y el ideal de perfeccion, vivir en este momento, y para poner una sonrisa en la cara de otra.
Igualmente, queiro abrir mis ojos a las vidas en otro partes del mundo, incluyendo mi propio enorme pais.
ABOUT ME
I am an outdoorsy girl who loves adventures. I love to go out for any and all types of dancing, especially salsa, swing, and ballroom! I enjoy backpacking in the Rocky Mountains and carrying everything I need on my own two shoulders. Things that make me happy are good healthy food , avocados, cocktails, cats, music, dance, and just sitting with others to relax and play games. I'm born and raised in Denver, Colorado and know the city very well, but I also get out to the mountains a lot. Overall, I'm very easygoing and enjoy spending time with smiley goofy people.
Me encanta la naturaleza, trekking, montando en bicicleta, acampando. Disfruto esas cosas mucho en la linda cordillera de la gran rocosa una hora lejos de Denver. Me gusta salir para cualquier tipos de danza, y estoy aprendiendo mucho de los bailes de salon- salsa y swing especialmente! Me dan mucho alegria las comidas sanas y ricas, paltas, cocteles, los gatos, la musica, la danza, y para hablar de cosas ridiculosas y incomodas y no tomar la vida ni si mismo tan serios. Me gustan las conversaciones de nerd acerca de las ciencias, comida, astronomia, la naturaleza, y fisicas.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've stayed with several amazing hosts in Chile during my backpacking travels and I have hosted a few United States surfers at my apartment but regret that I haven't hosted more due to my early morning work schedule.
My hopes are that those who stay with me don't treat me like a hotel, that they want to share something special about their own interest or home, and that they have a genuine interest to go outside and see Denver.
Interests
Biking around town, going to local breweries, salsa and ballroom dancing, video games, backpacking/camping, violin, piano. I love to cook and love exploring new food and mixed drinks!! I enjoy geeky discussions out about science, food, astronomy, nature, physics.
