Boston native, L.A. import and part-time resident of Mexico.

Long story short: After 10 solid years of working very long hours as an editor in Hollywood I decided to spend more time outside the country, in Baja California, Mexico and only work part-time instead. Since then, I've been able to enjoy a more relaxed personal life, spend a few years as a full-time mom and appreciate the simple life as opposed to a material life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel. I'm a couch-surfer at heart. Primarily I'm here to find a couch to crash on UNTIL I find the right room to rent, when I come to the Los Angeles area to work for extended periods.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have an amazing daughter and I changed my entire life to make that happen!

Teach, Learn, Share

I encouage people to explore the world's many countries and cultures so that one individual can learn how at once, we're so different yet so completely THE SAME.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cleanliness, responsibility, conversation from time to time when work doesn't sap my energy. My average day is 10 to 11 hours and sometimes we go longer, so it's pretty grueling.
