(muh-LEE-uh)(Maria with an L)

Texan with a Hawaiian name that speaks some bad French.

Some things about me:
I like puppies... no kittens!... wait... puppies.
I would love to use "big words" correctly but have failed in that effort for most of my life.
I cook a mean vegetarian stir fry, migas, quiche, chocolate cake, and guacamole.
I have literally been around the world.
I can move objects with my mind... after my mind tells my hand to move them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've made a handful of videos on YouTube about how to couchsurf, I'm on couchsurfing because its the best way to travel. I like to visit cities and get the locals perspective. I've stayed with a lot of people in a lot of places though CouchSurfing and haven't been disappointed!
