Hi I am Natasia. I am a creative professional who loves spending time with my friends and my family. Traveling is one of my favorite things, whether embracing our own soil or traveling overseas.  I love all types of food, especially a little spice. I try to keep my life interesting and fun- and am always up for an adventure! I am easy going, positive and very personable and would love to meet you!

A few things about me:
-I am lucky to be surrounded by a very diverse group of friends from mid 20s to mid 80s and everything in between.
-I love to throw a good themed party and always up for designing a costume.
-Always down to join in an off the beaten path, hidden or novel activities
-My super power is gratitude and thank you cards.
- I never sneeze just once...more like 7 times!
-My partner in crime and adventure travel buddy is my super savvy, smart, adrenaline junkie husband.
- We love hanging out and being with friends so much we invited our best friends to join on our Honeymoon to New Zealand- which was an absolute blast!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

You can meet interesting people anywhere and I like to meet people who say yes to living life. Seems like there is a lot of people who say yes to living life who travel and there is a lot of people who say yes to living life in this community... would love to meet more of them.
