About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the world and being happy and an awesome doggo mom ever!!

ABOUT ME

I like having fun and being outside. I'm very open minded and I like to explore. I don't ever want to settle for anything and I always want to continue to travel and see the world.
I love being active as well. Being outside just makes me happy but either running, biking, climbing, hiking, anything.. i love it if I can be outside and enjoy the day either alone or with friends. My true passion is climbing though. I'm always down to go bush-wacking, exploring, doing anything to get in some good time in on the rock.

The crazy thing is that the more that I have seen and witnessed makes me truly believe that the vastness and beauty of this world will never truly be attainable. There is more than just having a checklist of things and places that you want to travel to and see. But it is the experiences and people that happen and you meet that makes the difference. I hope to say someday that i have left a mark on others in the same way that they have done for me to make me who I am today.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have found that CouchSurfing is more than just sleeping on a couch, but it is a whole community of people and friends. I go to several different CS get-togethers and hang outs to just meet the community in my area and have a blast with fun people.
I also enjoy hosting people, or if I am unable to host at the moment, at least meet up and get a pint or coffee with.
I have also surfed several places myself and I find that some of the best friends I have made in an area are those that have hosted me, so a thanks and cheers go out to those people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had great experiences with CouchSurfing and not only with the people that I have stayed with, but also with the people that I have just met and hung out with.
The Strong community that is CouchSurfing is truly incredible and one of a kind. Some of the kindest people in the world are on this website, I wish I will have time to meet them all!

Interests

I'm interested in learning and experiencing new things. Whether it is a person, food, music, culture, country... etc. everybody has something to teach me.

I am also currently super interested in phrases that people use when speaking english! Haha!!! This has become a new fascination of mine. So far my time living in Ireland has been so funny because I will say something and everything gets confused between myself and my Irish Friends.. then the same thing vice versa happens.. I love it!!
