Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Came back to California after about 4 years of living in Ecuador. Going to settle for a few years then start my journey again.
ABOUT ME
I'm a Physical Education Teacher, newly married. My main sport is Soccer and I've traveled all over the U.S., lived in Ghana, Australia, Thailand, and Ecuador.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe that when an opportunity arises, take it. You only live once and if you don't do something that you're interested in you may regret it later. I also believe traveling is important to not only individuals, but people as a whole in order to get to know one another and broaden world views.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My husband and I plan to host couch surfers when we move, currently we are in a place with many roommates, but moving in a few months to our own place, so it will be easier to host.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Since being in Australia, I've used couch surfing to meet people, and was lucky in the fact that a friend of a friend of a friend is hosting me in Aussie. I've used couchsurfing in New Zealand, Thailand, and Ecuador. I have a place in Ecuador still that is hosting people, but you have to go to Laurentino's profile because he is currently in the house, he is my cousin, and making the schedules for people to surf.

Music, Movies, and Books
Reggae music is my favorite, but I like and appreciate any type of music. I live and thrive off live music, it is the universal language.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
An amazing thing I've done is lived in Ghana for a while, moved to Australia on my own, and ate Kangaroo, not to mention the over sized rat that simulated Splinter off Ninja Turtles in Ghana.

I can teach basic skills in African Drumming, Dancing, and Ballroom dancing. I can also teach a majority of sports in general (it's my career).

Knowledge about different places and outdoor things to do. English and Spanish conversation and a friendly smile ready to help and learn from you as well.
