CURRENT MISSION

Live life to the Fullest! :)

ABOUT ME

I love to capture unique things through photography in my travels. I grew up traveling throughout my life and I wish to meet cool and fun people and share crazy stories. I cherish good people, good culture and surround myself with multicultural people and things.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest because you never know when it will end!

Someone is always watching!

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, rather, by the moments that take your breath away!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

There are too many people in this world that are still good - willing to share, be open, and enjoy in life's little pleasures. Sharing one's culture and bestowing that graciousness to another is infectious, which can have profound effects on peoples' lives and those around them - always.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I have hosted but since I just started 28 Dec 2008, and I just moved, things should be on the up and up! I can't wait to host more! When I lived in Germany, my friends called my place, "Silvie's Hostel" ...Man I miss those days!

Interests

I enjoy snowboarding, surfing, photography, skydiving, dancing (salsa), hiking, mountain biking, Bikram Yoga, tennis, swimming, traveling, and cooking.
