About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore, share, meet, laugh, learn, see!!!

ABOUT ME

I am a simple, energetic, positive outlook on life kind of girl. I love to meet people and share stories. I am very open minded and love like-minded people. I am a kind and nurturing soul, but with strong values such as respect, integrity, honor and compassion.

PHILOSOPHY

The truth will set you free.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I love people in general and I find it is the perfect way to connect :) There's just something about having a local point-of-view while visiting a city! The tourist scene is great but I'd rather experience a city than just SEE it! Also, it feels great to make a pal to whom you will give a couch back when they visit YOUR home!!!

Interests

Ummm, lets see... Music, meeting new people, traveling, having a get-together/party, honest discussions, dinner parties, art, meditation.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, really. More into the beat than the lyrics! The Alchemist has to be one of my fave books and Eat, Pray, Love and Phenomenon are two of my top movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have TWO particularly enlightening moments that I'll never forget:
Banff, Alberta, Canada, summer 2003; sitting on a hillside looking down on an emerald river zigzagging between immense mountains, wind in my hair... just pure untouched nature... in that moment, I understood what it meant to be ONE with nature🙏🏼
Morroco: star gazing in the Sahara desert, no clouds, no sound....just sandy dunes... we are so, so, so small. The immensity of the night sky was humbling.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook an omelet...I have to say they are my specialty...! I also love to try something from the host-country!
Also, I like to share pictures, stories, inspirational quotes I love and a good laugh!
