Overview
About Me
Curious woman from Brooklyn, NY with Caribbean heritage. I am passionate about Travel and have traveled to 40+ countries so far. I recently resigned from my career in Finance of 10 years to find my true purpose in life. I am the owner of an e-commerce company and events and entertainment company in Trinidad and Tobago. I am also a patron of the arts with membership at Guggenheim and Brooklyn Museums. I love trying new food, drinks, listening to music, exercising (particularly going to the gym and long distance walking)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My greatest travel experiences have been through spending extended time with local people. As a woman that is curious and deeply intellectual, traveling is more than sightseeing and eating. I am looking for meaningful exchanges about individual life stories, culture, interests. I hope to bring nuance to your interaction or opinion of American travelers and I hope to leave with inspiration as I craft the next chapter of my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Starting my own company
Teach, Learn, Share
I hope to further explore the world for longer periods of time and to make genuine connection along the way (something that my work schedule did not previously allow) that would inspire me as I figure out the next phases of my life.
