About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To communicate value to all. To love. To take it all in. To make a difference.

ABOUT ME

I am married to a good man. I love being a mom. It overwhelms my heart. I am a photographer. I love capturing the beauty people and the best moments of life. I like talking to strangers and meeting new people. I hate being startled. I am aware of my strengths and weaknesses. I am also aware that there are probably more of both that I am currently unaware of. I am creative, disorganized, resourceful, fun, impulsive at times, friendly, strangely irritated by certain sounds, kind, affectionate, forgetful, adventurous and scattered. I really really really want to overcome the weaknesses. I have a teachable heart but, I am not sure I am easy to teach. I desire instruction from those who know better. I am not easily offended. I am sometimes slow to pick up on social cues. I am grateful that my value has nothing to do with what I do or do not do.

I am deeply affected by injustice, especially when it comes to children, elderly folks, or anyone who is at the mercy of another. I am deeply saddened when anyone feels rejected, lonely, or afraid. I love God and people. I love redemption and am thankful that my life is a great example of that. I hope that my heart will always be tender, regardless of anything I experience.

I like to think up inventions, ideas, and ways to problem solve. I don't like to go to bed. Too many things keep me from being tired. There are just so many exciting and interesting things to do and think about. I am good at starting new things, good things, getting really into those things for a time and then getting bored and want to move onto something else. This may be an indicator of my immaturity.

Metal detectors are fun. I would love to find an old secret map of a buried treasure and then go find it. I have always wanted to be a detective or a private investigator.

PHILOSOPHY

Love God. Love people. Love is an action word.

"If you seek for truth, you will find truth and comfort. If you seek for comfort you will find neither" -CS Lewis

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I am new to the "official" Couch Surfing world, I have hosted people many times, throughout the years. Each of these connections were made through someone that I was at least an acquaintance with.
I am open to having people stay at my house. However, I do have a friendly, but quite introverted husband that I would have to clear it with first.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have traveled all over the United States, and some of Mexico, doing volunteer work, staying in host homes and have hosted others as well. The term "couch surfing" is new to me. However, these have always taken place as a result of "someone who knew someone." This is my first time to become a part of the "couch surfing" trend.

Interests

I am a professional photographer and full time volunteer with a nonprofit organization. I love finding ways to be creative and resourceful. I like people.
