CURRENT MISSION

To visit every country on earth!

ABOUT ME

Traveling, meeting new people & exploring are my hobbies, which is quite addictive....back from one trip and already planning the next. My dream is to visit all 195 countries!!!

I am a competitive cyclist and distance runner and am pretty health conscious. With that said, I am a biiiig fan and consumer of wine, beer and pizza!!!!

PHILOSOPHY

I am looking to pay forward all of the generosity shown to me both during my 2 years of traveling and throughout my life....often by complete strangers!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met some truly incredible and extraordinary people couchsurfing and hosting couchsurfers from various parts of the USA and the world!!!

Centres d'intérêt

Traveling, Cycling and running are my principle passions for life but am not shy about trying and doing new things. I also enjoy learning new languages and have embarked upon studying French. Although unlike Spanish, pronounciation is proving to be a big challenge for me. I am sure it is similar for those learning English....way to many rules!!!!
