CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world as I can before life gets too serious

ABOUT ME

I love life. It's taken me 7 years to get up the courage to quit my current job and travel for a while. I am both a little scared and totally excited. I am a very active person and finished my first Half Ironman Triathlon in July. I love to laugh, am very close with my sister, and enjoy being with friends and love new experiences. I love the peaceful moments - there's nothing better than being on a hike and hearing nothing but the birds or watching the ocean waves. Some say I have the craziest ideas, but ultimately I just want to experience everything I can in this life. I have always been a very independent person and am trying this couchsurfing because it's like allowing a stranger to help you and there's always the opportunity of making a new friend :-)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe you are never alone, there is always someone listening. We have a path, though it may change and we may detour from it. Life is beautiful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I definitely want to give back and once I am back in the US and have my own place, I would love to host.
