About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Relax, Be Happy, Travel

ABOUT ME

Please check out my orginal couchsurfing profile that my ex-boyfriend and I created when we were together traveling Europe. The people we met and our references are on that profile. You can also find more information about me. :)
http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/arilda_and_jaime/

I get a high from traveling. If I don't travel, I feel an emptiness. I make an effort to travel at least once a year, if possible two times per year. In general I am a quiet and introvert person, but with those that I am close to I am fun, loving, caring, friendly, open minded, and spontaneous. I enjoy learning, and meeting new people, however I do have little tolerance for self centered people.

I currently live with my husband and 1 year old beagle. She loves meeting new people as well. :)

I have traveled many places and have been grateful for being hosted. Now that I have space and some time I am looking forward to hosting when I can. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Meet new people, learn new cultures, experience as much as I can in the life that makes me happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Giving suggestions to people visiting my city. Meeting for coffee if I am able. At times now it might be a possibility that I can host you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First began with couchsurfing prior to leaving on my 3 month trip to Europe. Then on my Europe trip met many people through couchsurfing.

Interests

The simple things in life make me happy. I try to live in the moment. One step at a time, one breath at a time. Life is to short, really it is. It is hard to understand this if you have not faced an obstacle that has threatened your life. However, I have and I have made many changes to my life for the good. I relax, and I am happy for what I have right now. I have dreams and take steps on acoomplishing them, but I do this in the least stressful way as possible.

I usually spend my time doing things I like to do. I work to live and travel. I like taking walks, bicycle rides, going to the gym, hiking, swimming, yoga... physical activity. I also like watching movies, and reading books at times.
