Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see as much of the world as long as I am willing and able. I have realized that where I thrive the most are in unusual situations. While I am here I want to create a place for people of like mind to be who they want and need to be to find peace.
ABOUT ME
Who am I? I am a dreamer who sees my dreams come to fruition. I am happiest when my mind is quiet. I do, however, love to play. Somewhere along the way we lose our inner child and I feel that I am here to find it, revel in it and then help others find their childlike self. We have so much to learn and so much to experience in this lifetime I'm not sure if it can all be fit in...but I'd like to try. I find that teaching yoga and being surrounded by a loving and creative community helps my tend to these goals.
PHILOSOPHY
I must live near the beach so I can hear the seabirds or in the mountains. I am not a big fan of flat land. As long as I can see some sign of life around me I feel complete.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now I can participate by showing people what there is going on in the Santa Monica area. I do not have a couch, but I would love to take them to a class, maybe surfing and even a yoga class. There's lot's to do and see here in this town.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have not had any, in this CS community, yet. While in Hawaii visiting friends they had couch surfers from Canada, Santa Barbara and France. I met some amazing people and we went and checked out the Big Island. IT inspired me to become a part of this amazing community of people. One day we even did a theme day "French Day".

Music, Movies, and Books
All of it, especially comedies...I love laughing out loud when I'm watching movies. I do, however, love watching documentaries and inspiring movies. Thank god for itunes is all I can say about music.
