I love to travel. So far it has mostly been in the US, but I am ready to travel the whole world! There are so many things out there to experience - and I'm all about living life to the fullest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've actually been doing this for a long time. I love to host people and play tour guide or give recommendations about the beautiful Superstition Mountains near me. I often visit or stay with people I know when I'm traveling so I can spend time with people, feel like a local, and find out about the best places to go and things to do, not necessarily the ones on the tourist guides. I'd much rather be immersed in a community than stay in a hotel. Since I live in a winter destination I have Yoga students all over the US and I love visiting or meeting up with them. I used to travel to Taiwan and Mexico for work, and loved hanging out with my work friends so I could experience the local life. A couple of my friends told me about couch surfing, and it seems like a great fit for me. I'm excited about it, and very grateful that so many people are interested in connecting in this way!

Interests

I love nature, especially animals, waterfalls, beaches, and mountains. I like playing in nature - hiking, running, snowboarding, wakeboarding, swimming, canoeing, camping, and more. I enjoy history and culture as well, but I'm not into shopping so much. I love music and dancing, and like to see good local bands (mostly rock). I enjoy going to Yoga classes, drum circles, and cool spiritual gatherings. I love a good uplifting conversation. I lead Yoga and Meditation Retreats, so I'm also on the lookout for great places to do that all over the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking in Kauai was pretty awesome. I had so much fun on that island - met so many interesting travelers camping and staying at the hostel.
