About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Own a Barbie Dreamhouse

ABOUT ME

I am very outgoing, love to meet new people and never hesitate to do things on a whim. I want to continue to meet people from around the world and have a great time. I'm a huge fan of travelling and plan to travel the world. However, when I'm not travelling I like to meet people who are travelling so I can live vicariously through them :)

I am an ambitious entrepreneur. Currently, I'm in the process of growing my empire via innovation and travel. Travel allows me to meet the big influencers in my industry and innovation allows me to travel at my own leisure. Essentially, my business allows me to be wherever I want, whenever I want.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the now.
No regrets.
No fear.
Full appreciation.
With a side of humor.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I'm traveling all the time I am able to surf a lot on a regular basis. Whenever, I'm back home I try to host as much as possible. Pretty much I experience both sides of the coin on a regular basis. It's always fun to mix it up!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed all over Europe, North America, Asia and South America. I've had tons of Couchsurfer groups over the years. I've had some amazing, unique and memorable experiences throughout my Couchsurfing history. I've met some amazing friends that I consider to be life long friends.

PS. If you end up traveling to Tbilisi and meeting/surfing my place, don't be surprised if I meet you in your part of the world. I'm not the type of person that forgets and just loses connection. To me Couchsurfing is a life-long project.
