My current mission is to express, share, and give love to the world!!! I'm an open-minded adventurer and lover of life who loves to travel, meet new people, explore, experience the excitement of life, learn languages, live every moment to the fullest, discover, express spontaneity, embrace creativity, immerse in different cultures, and have fun!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hosting travelers from all over the world and opening my home to surfers is lovely, and my experiences surfing have also all been awesome as well. I love to surf, host, learn/grow/be inspired with people, and meet amazing people around the world.
