ABOUT ME

I have a passion for life! I enjoy exploring and strive to find love and beauty in all things. I grew up on a farm and have always enjoyed simple pleasures. I am a lover of nature and of all animals

PHILOSOPHY

I strive to live in the present and enjoy every minute of it. I also try to learn from every experience and make the most of every second. I live simply and do my best to enhance rather than damage this amazing planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new and interesting people and explore with them!

Interests

I am interested in adventure in all forms: exploring new territory, kayaking, snorkeling, hiking, sailing, mountain biking, etc. and am always up for finding a new way to experience nature. I also enjoy meeting interesting people, finding beauty in unexpected places, relaxing with a good book, yoga, and meditation.
