CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying this Wonderful World

ABOUT ME

Hi there, I love to travel and can't stay in one place for long. I've lived in Australia twice, Canada once, Laos twice and am from central Massachusetts, in the US. I'm a cook, a writer, and a photographer. I've actually held about 28 different jobs, largely due to my love for travel and willingness to do whatever it takes to support those adventures. I am very passionate about immersing myself in different cultures, and I really prefer a deep look at any place I go. When I find a really fascinating place, I've got to live there, I can't just visit. I love to meet new people and learn about their worlds. I believe in making the most out of life. Right now, I'm happily in Denver where I've got a food cart selling delicious healthy Asian foods, many learned from my travels.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's short, so do what you want now. Don't wait. Enjoy yourself. Be good and be kind. Make the best of your time on this earth. Discover your passions and use them to bring happiness to yourself and others. Make a positive impact everywhere you go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am spreading the word about couchsurfing, hosting couchsurfers and looking forward to staying at others homes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When my last partner and I were biking through Asia, complete strangers would invite us in to their homes and care for us. We had such gratitute and couldn't wait til we had a place of our own to offer to other travelers. When I discovered couch surfing it was the perfect way to match up with people who needed a place to stay. Wonderful way to pass on kindness.
