CURRENT MISSION

to be as happy and free as possible

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a small town, loving family, nice childhood, ect...never felt like one of the herd. Just floated along in my own little world and as I get older I realize just how important it is to keep growing, not to stop just because it's inconvienent or unpleasant. I've found that being too comfortable is not always the best thing and sometimes family brings a little too much comfort and lulls me into a deep sleep. So, travel, I have found is my saving grace! Meeting new and interesting people and experiencing new things helps me discover things about myself I never knew. I simply love it!! and I don't know what I'd do without it!!

PHILOSOPHY

To be as kind, loving, patient, supportive, respectful and gracious as possible every day that I live! That is what I strive for!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to travel and connect with people around the world. I always learn so much about myself every time I travel! I joined to meet new & interesting people all over so I can return hang out with friends and eventually host friends from around the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well I just joined so none so far involving random strangers...but I've couch surfed for years at various friends houses or apartments! In fact I did it just the other weekend and woke up with dog hair in my mouth.

Interests

I love the outdoors! Surfers, ha,ha!! Art, architecture, history, science, the environment, time travel, reading a really good book, hiking, biking, boating, repelling, camping, and of course traveling! Hanging out with good friends old and new and just having a great time, while I have the time, and there's no time like the present!!

Teach, Learn, Share
