Hello fellow surfers!

I'm a chill lil lady in my mid-twenties determined to live life to the fullest. I am a middle child of 6, so I'm used to having lots of people around, and I thrive when I'm surrounded by a community of friends and loved ones.

I strive to live a sustainable lifestyle and bring only good into this world. There's a lot of bullshit that goes on out there and most of it stems from individuals refusing to acknowledge that we are all one in the same. Honesty is my philosophy, love is my religion!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love this community! I've been hosted by some stellar individuals in Thailand, Australia and New Zealand and I've had some incredible people come stay with me back home in The States.

Interests

I like folk music, jazz, indie, electro, funk & soul! I'm a fan of any movie or book that can evoke deep emotion or contemplation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Helped care for my terminally ill baby nephew. Made a woman cry from relief after a massage. Slid down this glacier: https://www.facebook.com/shira.smasonmarcus/videos/vb.514604171/10152009803679172/?type=3
