CURRENT MISSION

To get out of my comfort zone, take advantage of every opportunity I have, and live life without regrets!

ABOUT ME

I am a bit of a wanderer, but in the process I have become much more mature and open-minded! The last five years of my life have not exactly been predictable!

PHILOSOPHY

Aside from travel, some of the best things in life include being present, laughing, dancing, and listening to music

"Happiness consists in realizing it is all a great strange dream"

"Not all those who wander are lost"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love meeting people from all over the world, and couchsurfing is a way for me to live vicariously through others...to feel like I'm somewhere new even when I'm back in the "daily grind" of everyday life. This concept makes me appreciate where I live even more...especially when I was living on the west coast haha

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed in Australia, Canada, and the U.S., hosted while living in San Francisco, was active in the Portland community, and am trying to get the Wichita group going but it's a slowww process to say the least!

Interests

People who are more interested in truly living life rather than just going through the motions! I love live music, dancing, cultural activities, photography, staying physically fit, meeting new people, watching documentaries, and last but not least...booking flights to far-away places and figuring out the details later :)
