CURRENT MISSION

Never miss opportunities. You never know when they will come around again.

ABOUT ME

I returned in May 2012 from living in Malawi, Africa working for the Peace Corps. It was a great time, but now I have to get down to business with another round of schooling. I am taking classes to prepare me for Nursing school and although it is busy I am managing to enjoy every minute of it.

PHILOSOPHY

Always look at the glass as half full, and never miss opportunities as they come at you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a few people during my Peace Corps service. I found a lot of value in meeting new travelers but also in giving them the opportunity to see what the village life is like for people in Malawi. Swapping stories and places to travel was, and continues to be, a blast.

Interests

Traveling, photography, sewing, reading, journaling/writing, yoga, baking delicious treats just to name a few. I love to ski, enjoy getting outdoors and having opportunities to sit and experience different places.
