CURRENT MISSION

Create a balanced and purpose-driven life that fulfills me and enriches the lives of those around me.

ABOUT ME

Intellectually curiosity. I love to learn and experience new things, and travel is one of the best ways I've found to do that.

A dancer - particularly partner dancing. Primarily West Coast Swing, with experience in Salsa, Kizomba, and various others.

I love to cook for others and share meals with them - it's always exciting for me to experience new flavors, and learn about other cultures through how they experience food. .

PHILOSOPHY

All experiences -good and bad- have value. They all contribute to the shape, color, and texture of life. Drink it all in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with travelers around the world, and to share my own home with them.
To hear their stories.
To enrich my life, and theirs, through shared experience.

Interests

Dancing - in most every way. Wine - from the grapes to the glass. Food - making it, eating it, leaning about it. Meeting wonderful people who will fill my life with adventures and journeys and happiness.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach:
-Dance. Swing or salsa
-Wine. I'm a wine nerd and love talking about it.

And would love to learn how to:
-Use the Spanish language (and others) more proficiently
-Cook delicious things that I do not yet know how to make.
-Rock climb

What I Can Share with Hosts

My enthusiasm for learning, and my open heart.
I am honest, and present myself openly to the people I encounter.
I'd love to cook you a meal, open a bottle of wine, and we can share stories!
