Free-spirited and always searching for an adventure. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, with a love for the Biology of the human body and the magic of the spirit. Enchanted by the forest, and all nature that surrounds. Music is the sound of the soul. My hula hoop has become an extension of me. Dancing brings me much joy. I strive to fill my smile and laughter with strong positive energy, in hopes to spread and share my happiness.

Nearly a year ago I decided I wanted to see another corner of this world. I decided the only way to truly experience life was to see as much of this human experience as possible. Meet new people, learn to appreciate a new culture, immerse myself in sight, sounds, and smells I've never known. This journey is a means to deeper self-discovery, to find the path that is meant for my feet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Majority of people are content with a week long get-away to the average tourist destination, chasing the sights made for postcards. Though I hope to see some of this too, I truly desire to go deeper and explore the intimate aspects of the culture. And experience are always better had with friends!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in school, I was following a path to become a Pathologist. So I applied for an internship at the local Medical Examiner's office and was accepted as an intern. During this internship I was able to perform several open cavity autopsies. I've touched the inside of a body!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to Hula hoop or how to Crochet. Willing to share my knowledge of biology, crystals and their healing properties, my love of nature. Willing to learn anything and lend a hand in any way I can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many of my friends commend me on my free spirit and radiant energy. I enjoy entertaining people with my silliness and off kilt humor. I always try to keep a welcoming smile on my face! I think conversation is precious, I cherish the words others share with me, and in return I hope my words encourage and inspire.

Let's dance!
