About Me

Hello, world, just your typical dreamer here trying to learn more about myself and others. Since I moved out here from Puerto Rico 3years ago I've grown tremendously and have made so many wonderful friends along the way. I'm currently living in St Petersberg, FL, with my best friend. I've taken a hiatus from meandering and have welcomed this space as a current hearth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I lived in Puerto Rico, I had the opportunity to host people that were passing through and was very pleased with the wonderful humans I met and the stories they shared. A friend recommended I get a profile on this site, which I was previously unaware of. I hope to also get to connect with others, know their towns, and hear their stories as I go along making my own history.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have a particular genre that I am attached to. I do love timeless music from around the world. I have a soft spot for Ella & Louis duets, as well as for Tiny Tim. My favorite books are a series of books called "The mortal instruments". I do love to read about philosophy, religion, psychology, and history, which I've had the blessing of encountering academically. The one movie that I find most intriguing regarding the exploration of existence and choice is "Mr.Nobody". Every time I see it I uncover more treasures!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The one experience that has changed my life significantly was ending up at "Love Burn" Miami 2017. I found out about it a few hours before my friends at "The Eco Village" -St. Pete. FL- left for said event. I had no money, no way to get there, but a desire to experience something I never had before. The next morning my darling friend came knocking at my door, because my phone was on silent and she had been unable to contact me. She stopped to borrow "cute clothes", and ended up hijacking me on a magical bus to Miami. I had no idea if I was going to get in or if I'd have to book a ticket back as they all enjoyed the gathering. Upon our arrival, I was gifted a ticket by one of the event's organizers. I had no idea I would be so healed by the wonderful humans gathered there. People were selfless, unconditional, and free spirited. After love burn, I realized that every day can be like this, and thus began my journey of unconditional love!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not sure what this box is meant to be filled with, but I will give it a shot! I've always been working with kids, taught one how to read, and helped my baby sister grow. The children showed me so much about myself I had disconnected from. They are honest, unapologetic, driven, and pure. They showed me that everyone is a teacher as well as an apprentice. We all have a piece of the collective puzzle.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my love and my impetus. I am open to learning as much as I can about cultures, and learning more about living in community. I would love to help you practice your Spanish, teach you how to crochet, play dress up/story time, and cuddle up to your pet. I adore mischief and promptly follow the winds that lead to wander. With that said, I give my drive to honor your home as you would. I am so grateful for the people I cross paths with and for the kindness they show. I have many stories, and art to share as well ;)
