Hi! I'm Victoria. Lover of all things that make my heart feel full. My general motto is to do good stuff and be free! Like to live limitlessly, and just go for it. Am pretty much up for whatever all the time. I like to have fun and stay open - to people, to differences, to what life brings. Traveling is one of my greatest joys, I lovelovelove to visit new places and experience new environments.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To find a place to stay, to expand, to be slightly uncomfortable, to meet great people, to learn great things. To have a great time!

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Paulo Coelho is the man! My favorite author for sure, I really identify with his books. Eckhart Tolle as well. And I like pretty much all music. Same with movies, especially comedies and French cinema.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm an Olympic style freestyle wrestler, headed for the 2016 Games in Rio if all goes well. Wrestling is what I've dedicated my life to, and has allowed me to travel to so many amazing places for training and competition.

Teach, Learn, Share

What time, you ask? Well of course, the time is now. What else is there?

Life isn’t about getting and having, it’s about giving and being. –Kevin Kruse

"Don't seek to become free of desire or achieve enlightenment - become present. Instead of quoting the Buddha, be the Buddha."

I believe that what you think about the world will be your experience in it - if you think it's awesome and inviting and caring and magical, it will be :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation, a lot of energy, open ears, an adventurous friend to get into some trouble with. Or to have a cup of coffee with. Or to eat frozen yogurt and watch Netflix with (3 of my favorite activities)
