About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To not just see the world but to experience it.

ABOUT ME

Born and raised a California girl, I enjoy the sun and being active outdoors. Although, give me a good book and I can easily lose myself in the fictitious world while curling up on a couch.
In a nutshell, I'm adventurous, love animals, kind-hearted, open-minded, and blessed to have the most amazing family and friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Risk Everything!

Don't be afraid of change. You may lose something good, but you may gain something better.

Never forget where you've been.
Never lose sight of where you're going.
And never take for granted the people who travel the journey with you.
-Susan Gale

If it scares you, it might be a good thing to try.
-Seth Godin

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now, my best friend and I are surfing our way around Europe.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only surfed in Ireland and Scotland but all the hosts I've stayed with have been wonderful! It's wonderful to get a locals perspective on what the area has to offer.

Interests

Traveling (of course), running, reading, baking, hiking, piano, listening to live local music, volunteering, and pretty much anything outdoors.
