CURRENT MISSION

To learn, grow, and be immersed into the beauty of people and all it's diversity. To show people love and generosity. To defy social norms by giving all I have to anyone who needs it.

ABOUT ME

I am a truly inquisitive person. I love people and all the stories they have. I am a jazz vocalist, an explorer, a student, and a mother to the sweetest boy you'll ever meet. People were meant to live life with each other, to share life and joy. I really believe that. I have a heart for diverse cultures and seeing people truly immersed in them. I love Jesus and I believe that his heart was / is for all people. I believe that by following him, I have a responsibility to give of what I have-- because nothing I own is "mine" to begin with. I see it all as a gift to be shared.

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't let you happiness depend on something you may lose." -C.S. Lewis

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to just get to know people. You're welcome in my home, and I'll do as much as I can to make you feel welcome in my city :). Columbus is a great place, and I'm growing and learning here myself as much as I like to show people around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been awesome so far :). All the surfers I've hosted have been lovely and such a sweet addition to my journey. I'm honored to host and to share what I have with you.

Interests

Singing, dancing, reading, walking, traveling, different kinds of foods... anything mentally stimulating. I'm a clinical mental health graduate student so I am very interested in anything related to mental health.

Music, Movies, and Books

Absolutely any kind of music has its place with me. I'm especially into jazz and country. I've always been a movie buff. My favorites include: Braveheart, Gladiator, Finding Neverland, Good Will Hunting, the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, and American Beauty.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once traveled from Southern Cali all the way up to Canada and back over a summer; stopping at churches and community places along the way to just help and love on people. That was hands down the best experience of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've had quite a bit of experience in the world of music and dance. I've sang in various jazz clubs, and I always make it a personal priority to go explore random concerts so that I can continuously be inspired by new music. I honestly think that there is nothing more beautiful in this world than someone willing to love and teach someone else; to put someone above themselves. That's what we're here for. I just want to know people, understand people, and leave a trail of joy as I walk. I don't mean to sound overwhelmingly happy and obnoxious, but I do find great value in seeing and sharing the beauty in life.
