[sorry friends, currently an unable to host. I am not in Saint Lucia]

I am from a small island in the Caribbean called Saint Lucia (population of 180,000), called the 'Helen of the West Indies', a reference to Helen of Troy because of its beauty. I speak our indigenous language which is called Saint Lucian Kweyol, which is a language mixed with mainly french and some African dialects as a result of the colonisation era.

I am a nature-loving, adventurous and spontaneous person/mermaid/fairy. I love arts and crafts, music, growing and caring for plants and sports. If I am not drawing or painting or dancing around my house, I am at the beach kite surfing and also learning to surf. I go on many hikes and off roads with my friends. We love going to waterfalls and rivers and cooking in nature (what we call cookouts). I also and volunteering for environmental and animal causes. I also make healing crystal beaded jewelry as a side job.

I am also vegan for health reasons and for the environment so if you're looking for a vegan host, I am here!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I have never been outside of the Caribbean and it is my dream to visit all of the world responsibly and sustainably. I love meeting people from different backgrounds and cultures and would also like to share my part of the world with everyone since the Caribbean can tend to be a hidden gem.

Cultures are so diverse and I think that cultural exchanges are great for achieving global peace as well as eliminating prejudices about each other. I am also an International Tourism major which fuels my desire for travel, culture and heritage and ecotourism.
