About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am here to love.

ABOUT ME

I just want my fancy tickled!

These are a few of my favorite things: theatre, dark chocolate, swings, yoga, Helen Keller jokes, old photographs, fresh fruits and veggies, contemplating the vastness of the universe, cuddling, using public transportation, music, spontaneity, being outside, strolling, shaking my tailfeather

I must confess the following, because honesty is the best policy:
-I enjoy doing dishes and laundry.
-I expect a lot from people, and even more from myself.
-I am a perfectionist.
-If you can't make a decision, I will, so speak your mind.
-I'm rarely the one to initiate conversation but I love to talk (and listen).

I always seem to use up the last of the toilet paper when I'm couchsurfing. What is that about? I swear I don't use an abnormal amount. So for all our sakes, just be sure if you host me that you have an extra roll handy.

Friends have described me as hilarious, intelligent, selfless, ridiculous, courageous, sarcastic, independent, confident, passionate, a cheeky monkey, and a tip-top dancing machine. I have also been told I give good high-fives and hugs, but I can't whistle or wink with my right eye. And as far as I know, I don't have any enemies.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to meet friends, attend events, get to know my home a lot better by sharing it with new people!
.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I've been to a couple CS events in St. Louis, Chicago, and Europe, and have surfed several couches. I have also met up with a couple CSers around town for drinks and dining. It's definitely the best way to travel and I have met so many wonderful people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went ziplining in a cloud forest in Ecuador. Best $15 I ever spent.
.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is short, so follow your heart. Make enough money to survive, but find true riches elsewhere.

I'd love to share my knowledge of theatre, French, and yoga, and to learn more languages and to play guitar.
