About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the Journey and have as many awesome moments as possible on the way.

ABOUT ME

I am a fun-loving traveler who is trying to make every moment count. I love learning, especially random things, and love meeting people from all walks of life. I am always doing "something" and can't get enough of the outdoors and sports.

PHILOSOPHY

Go with your gut. Jump. Head first. Don't ever let others write your story for you. Carpe Diem. Positivity, Always.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to host surfers, but I am never one place for more than 2 months at a time, so I haven't had the opportunity to host from my own place. Would love to though!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed only once now and it was a beyond fantastic experience. I stayed with a couple in Columbia, SC while getting my Yoga Teacher Training Certification and they were beyond awesome! So I really am excited to keep couchsurfing and keep meeting such amazingly wonderful people!

Music, Movies, and Books

This category is always tough for me. I love all music that stirs me and that offers something unique. Right now I am listening to Hans Zimmerman, Kanye West, Laura Marling, Jonsi, Kings of Leon, Balkan Beat Box, Beats Antique, etc. As for movies? Anything that is unique, shot well, or just catches my imagination. Loved Limitless, Source Code, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, the Matrix (1), Hannah... And books? John Campbell's Reflection on the Art of Living, Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Garrett...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Costa Rica: Watching a green turtle lay its eggs then safely return to the see while poachers looked on.

New Zealand: Swimming in the ocean with dolphins!
