I would have to say i'm a very outgoing, friendly and energetic individual...I don't take myself too seriously (sometimes I should). I'm always up for a good time and a little adventure. I'm really just someone who is unapologetically herself :) PHILOSOPHY : *Smile and Laugh often* * Treat others the way you would like to be treated* (golden rule)
Interested in Adventure Sports
Interested in Beer
Fluent in English
Learning German
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
It started out as an economical way to travel and ended up being the only way I want to see a new place or meet new people. I truly feel that I have had the best connections with people I've met on this platform, and would wonder where my life would be without having opened up to people here and having them open up to me. I'm happy to have the opportunity to host my fellow surfers and repay what has been graciously been given to me.. the gift of travel, community and friendship. PEACE and LOVE
Music, Movies, and Books
R n B, House, Hip hop, Motown, Soul and Jazz....but I'm very open minded about music and I'd say I have more of an eclectic taste these days .

Teach, Learn, Share
I can help you with tandom english. I would like to become better at speaking German. Sharing is caring. I love sharing stories and food :)
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can offer my generosity (be it big or small) and a genuinely kind and hilarious space for all to enjoy.
My Interests
I like going where the good vibes are! Dancing or sitting at a pub, listening to live music, poetry and comedy or just anything social! I love discovering people's unique stories through conversation and enjoy learning about myself in the process. I am curious about learning about other cultures and customs (whilst also eating their amazing foods)! I feel that the other side of many stories are told through our own experiences of a country or place. Being outdoors is always a therapeutic experience, so I'm always up for adventures there: the beach, biking, hiking or just wandering around and people watching :)
