CURRENT MISSION

There is still more to see!!! So... I better get started

ABOUT ME

I'm a laid back kinda girl. I'm into nature. I love animals, the beach, camping, reading, playing chess, and working with children. I love to laugh...loudly... and sometimes with knee slapping.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to have my cake and eat it too... but I am willing to share some too. I want to experience so much. Why should I limit myself?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

amazing....hmmm.... how about interesting.... I lived in an all girl boarding school in Ghana, West Africa for a few months when I was 15.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to teach basic chess. BASIC, I am no expert
I like to teach in general, sharing what I have learned helps me remember the lessons even more. I want to learn a new language. I failed Spanish in college, and I am worried that I am not linguistically inclined... I need to prove my self wrong. I want to learn survival skills. I am interested in wild edible plants and self defense skills. I want to experience almost everything... almost...
