SO ABOUT MONIQUE CAPELTA . ....yes, I am detail-oriented. . .it feels natural for me to be as open as possible and I know that will resonate to like minded individuals.

I'm friendly, fun, career driven, and a social butterfly. A free spirit whom people say changes lives, spontaneous.. yet sensible, full of energy and creativity..Life is ART to me!

Years ago, I was that small town girl with big city dreams. I was so different from everyone ..there was this innate yearning for something bigger and better, I trusted my intuition, sacrificing all stability…I set out on a journey to find my fate. Today, I am so grateful for having the courage to do that! !!

I lived in NYC (12/2001-03/05), I found my heart in LA (4/2005-09/11), and my career led me to Denver (10/2011-11/13) ..that was a move that never fulfilled me. I've also enjoyed traveling to many countries of the world for business and pleasure!!!I have spent the last 18 months in my small NC hometown of Troy reconnecting with my beautiful family after living away since 2001.... I've actually needed this vacation for some time!
AND NOW, i am REFUELED, REJUVENATED with PASSION & PURPOSE and I anticipate the moment when my feet touch the west coast sand and I'm BACK into reality as i've known before. I am ready to plant roots in this magical place that inspires and motivates me ...absolutely, no dictionary terminology/interpretation states the purity in the word, truth ..in purely finding MYSELF. (thank you, LA.. I'm sorry I ever left you)

My hobbies include : Traveling- as far and often as possible! I enjoy painting in acrylics, building something new or renovating anything vintage.. from furniture to any piece of clothing, designing jewelry.. etc. I like tennis & working out- hiking, gym, yoga, but I haven’t done much of any of that in the last 18 months… hence the small NC town. I am a great cook, and recently I was a guest on a local cooking show demonstrating my signature dish, chicken marsala. I also love the beach, air hockey, networking with like minded people, red wine, sushi, thai, and doing anything in the water! I crave adventure, new experiences and foreign culture..foreign everything… My current goals, hobby-wise include: learning the guitar (with the ChordBuddy) and the Italian language… I would also like to learn to surf.

I am a born performer, I entertain with my thoughts and gestures. I love making people I encounter smile and think! I wish to change the world for the better in my own unique way. I am very passionate about astrology, metaphysics, and inspirational/motivation in general (you’ll find me in the self help section of the bookstore!)… I'm an Aquarius with Moon in Sag / Virgo Rising/Mars in Gemini. This means... I am a very organized, extremely neat and tidy, but not in an OCD way. I am a perfectionist, I flee from negativity and any ill associated distractions, drama or chaos of any kind is not worthy of my energy. In my world.. everything looks nice and feels clean.. and stays that way! I usually do the dishes even before I eat what I cook.. to enjoy my meal thoroughly.

As far as career goes, I am the owner & designer of the fashion brand, Capelta [capeltacouture.com] since 2006. I am so grateful to the worldwide boutiques that showcased my collections on their retail shelves, the fabulous celebs that have rocked my boots on/off camera..and are still my friends, the amazing press I've received on tv, in magazines, and fashion blogs. I've worked really hard, but honestly it isn't fun anymore...so as uncanny as it may sound, my passion forevermore lies in the entertainment industry to wherever it may lead ... in front of and behind the camera. I am multi-talented, a jack of many trades.. a degreed graphic artist, web designer, branded fashion designer, published model, accredited actress, photographer, video editor, makeup artist, songwriter, licensed masseuse... list goes on. I have this overwhelming desire to learn as much as possible in every field that interests me. I will not merely blend into the industry, I will attack and alter, becoming a part of the change that ultimately fuels the business...Change is my addiction and my champion, it is what makes me enjoy one day from the next and anxious to explore the future no matter what it holds.

My only baggage per se is my sidekick, a 4.6 lb bundle of joy, toy pomeranian, Kobi, an ESA and equipped with legal papers to overturn even the strictest landlord with a NO pet policy. . . trust me! I believe its best to be prepared at all times! So..Kobi travels with me everywhere... since he was 14 weeks old! Kobi is a few months shy of his 3rd birthday on January 9th, he is hypoallergenic (non shedding), always clean..tries to jump in the shower with me every day! He is very sweet and quiet ..unless he feels danger in a bad spirited person approaching..lol the ultimate guard dog..at worst he will only bark for a minute..nothing extreme ever.. I can honestly say his temperament is too good to be true.. he has never growled or snapped at anyone or anything.. wouldn't bite a flea! Obviously he's housebroken, and loves everyone..including all people, kids, and other animals..especially big dogs and cats (weird i know). He is a Godsend.. the best doggie I have ever had in my life.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I am driving cross country starting November 4th to my new place in Studio City, CA (Los Angeles).

I heard about this site through a friend in LA.. and said he met some amazing people along the journey of his travels.

My route is as follows..
Troy, NC to Nashville TN (looking for a host and new friend in Nashville, TN)
Nashville to Little Rock, AR (looking for a host and new friend in Little Rock, AR area)
Little Rock to Frisco, TX (staying with a good friend)
Frisco, TX to Albuquerque, NM .. this is a long 9 hr drive .. I would perhaps be interested in a place to rest my head or relax overnight or a few hours) in between the cities.. perhaps around Amarillo, TX
I have a good friend in Albuquerque, NM that i am staying with.
Next is another long drive to Las Vegas from Albuquerque, NM -8 hrs..perhaps in between it would be nice to chill out for a few hours.
