I love meeting people from different countries.... different backgrounds..different cultures. People who speak languages different from mine, who have experiences that I don't and might even see the world in a different way than I do. Life is short and not everyone has the time or luxury to visit all the places they want to but I can try and live through a strangers stories and experiences.
I want to travel as much as I can. I want to have deep conversations with people I just met, I want to laugh and share a drink with a new friend.
Not long ago I went on a soul searching adventure that opened my eyes and changed my life forever. Ask me to tell you about it if we ever meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make new friends, meet people who I would never meet otherwise and be a part of someone's story.

Interests

I like to cook. The perfect evening is one where I can cook with/for someone, share a meal and swap stories.
I enjoy my work. I appreciate a good book or movie now and then. When I'm in the mood I may draw or paint. I love karaoke. And dancing. I am a good listener and passionate about everything and everyone important to me.

Music, Movies, and Books

Definitely music. There's a song for every emotion, every mood... Every occasion. I don't have a favorite song or a favorite genre. I just go where my heart and ears take me. These days it's Latin Ballads but that can change anytime. I will share my music with you if you'll share yours. In my opinion... If you want to know someone... Listen to thier music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

How do I pick one thing? Is it the time I went shark cage diving in south africa with my friends or the first time I was invited into a traditional Zulu home? Is it my first time on an Airplane or when I went on the highest gorge swing in the world? Was it when I got my first tattoo or the fifth one? Maybe it's the time I went on a drunken safari and had to get out and push the car when it got stuck? There may have been rhino's in the vicinity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I Will listen and share. I will. Offer a good meal or two and tell you where to go and how to get there if I can. My favorite quote is from Maya Angelou; "Try to be a Rainbow in someone's cloud"

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a 2 bedroom apartment. Unfortunately I'm using the other bedroom for storage right now but it will be free from July 2019. In the meantime, there's a perfectly comfortable couch available, indoor kitchen equipped with most modern appliances, a washing machine, indoor bathroom... Etc.. I have two dogs; Rex and Reggie. They are the sweetest and love making new friends.
