About Me

CURRENT MISSION

be happy and love freely

ABOUT ME

chasing adventures and just taking it one day at a time. I used to work in biotech but left the industry to move to India. I lived here for four years teaching and traveling, left and went to travel around Europe for 6 months, fell in love, moved back home to study nursing and to awaken my inner artist once and for all, all in and for love

here is a song to share....

PHILOSOPHY

it's all about awareness and knowing that everything you need you have inside yourself already :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I heard about this from my old roommate and I thought it was too crazy to be true. Now that I am actually out in the world doing this whole traveling bit I took some time to check the site out and this is beautiful. I'm am all about it now and I am looking forward to meeting some new friends! I'm just starting to participate actively by reaching out and connecting with folks.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Like I said, my roommate became part of the network and introduced me to the community in Brookline, MA USA. I met some of the folks and I was in the process of raising money for a cause and all of the CS crew supported me to raise funds...one of them explained to me that this is what CS is about....not just a cheaper way to travel but about building community and helping each other. That stuck with me. Now I'm reconnecting and finding out more.....

Interests

man I'm interested in everything I see...that's the problem....or the excitement if you look at the glass half full :-) I love music....all types. i love to sing and I LOVE TO DANCE! looking at the world through a camera....laughing till my cheeks hurt and I'm crying....running, martial arts, the beach and swimming, love love love, becoming aware of myself and my surroundings, vipassana, learning things from kids, standing up for something
