ABOUT ME

I'm a woman who appreciates art, travel, vegan cooking, literature, soccer (football), hiking, and critical thought. I'm a beginner traveler that hopes to travel the world in my lifetime. I love to share, especially knowledge and food. I am wide-eyed, humble, grateful, social, and reciprocal. I live in beautiful Boulder, Colorado right next to the mountains.

PHILOSOPHY

If you can imagine it is possible and you have the passion for it, I say go for it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make friends in international places! My goal is to have a friend in every country. I think culture, food, traditions and art are beautiful aspects of a country and I'm very interested in learning how cultures are similar and different.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: 90's techno and tropical house have been my long time favorites. :)

Books: I'm currently reading Ishmael by Daniel Quinn. It's a fiction about a man who finds himself in the company of a gorilla. But this gorilla is no ordinary animal. He is highly intelligent and enlightens the author on how humankind is destroying the planet and how it can help make it right. It's super deep and very thoughtful. I highly recommend it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled thousands of miles to attend the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Then 3 months later, quit my job and decided to move there. 😁

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be happy to teach vegan cooking skills, I used to be a vegan chef for a few years and love to cook. I'm a smoothie making machine! I love leading yoga sessions and morning rituals. I know how to do Reiki energy healing as well. I can clear auras and encourage healing in your spirit.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great conversation. A nice vegan meal. Awesome ukulele music. An eye for adventure!
