Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To fully experience all that I can.
ABOUT ME
Originally from Pennsylvania but now have lived in Colorado for almost 15 years! I love the proximity to the mountains while still having the buzz of the city…I now have three (one only 3 weeks old!) nephews whom I absolutely adore and spoil. I started a canned cocktail company that is steadily growing. I love to hike, explore, learn, read, meet and engage with new people and experiences!
PHILOSOPHY
Do it now.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I started my CS account 10 years ago in prep for a cycling trip through Europe. I was able to host once before I left and then stayed in over 30 homes with people I´d never met. I have not had a single negative experience in those three months of couchsurfing! Also hosted a couple in Boulder, CO and since couch surfed a bit in Guatemala and Colombia.
Hopping back years later to travel in Europe and see how the couchsurfing experience is now
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So so so good! So many hugely positive experiences with so many wonderful hosts! I know have friends around the world and learned so much more about the places I´ve been than had I found other accommodations.
Interests
I love to travel, interact and connect with others, read, bike, hike, run, dance, take photographs, listen to music, watch movies, eat a lot, sleep a little, work, learn, and play. I'm currently reading 'The Kite Runner' and am always looking for book recommendations.
