CURRENT MISSION

To live life with love

ABOUT ME

I am an avid traveler, embracing the opportunity to immerse myself in new countries and cities. I try to live life in the present, and I thrive on the connections made with people from diverse backgrounds. Currently based in Panama City, Panama, my home is undergoing construction, and unfortunately, I am unable to host anyone at the moment. I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

PHILOSOPHY

Embrace the present moment, valuing and treating everyone with respect and love. To me, nothing else truly matters. As I approach the milestone of turning 50 and bid farewell to my 40s, I am excited to embark on a world adventure. Though retired, I have an insatiable thirst for knowledge and enjoy dedicating time to studying and learning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Though my experience with Couchsurfing has been limited, it has been nothing short of amazing. As I embark on my journey to travel the world, Couchsurfing provides me with an incredible opportunity to meet interesting people and share meaningful experiences. It is through these connections that I find joy in discovering the diversity and beauty of our global community. Additionally, it was on Couchsurfing that I had the serendipitous encounter that led me to meet my husband, creating a beautiful and unexpected love story.

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to movies and books, I have a strong affinity for comedy as it brings me immense joy and laughter. Additionally, I find biographies, autobiographies, and documentaries captivating, as they offer insights into real-life stories and experiences. In the realm of fiction, I have a fondness for science fiction.

In terms of music, I gravitate towards genres that feature instruments.I also enjoy dance, R&B, Folk, Bluegrass, and Spanish, while techno might not be my preferred choice, I find solace and enjoyment in mantra music that promotes relaxation and spiritual connection.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most incredible experiences of my life was meeting a wonderful man through Couchsurfing. Despite living in different countries, we connected deeply and decided to embark on a remarkable adventure together. We traveled across the United States, falling in love along the way. Several months later, I took a leap of faith and moved to South Africa to be with him.

Living in South Africa was a dream come true. We explored the breathtaking reserves, embarked on epic road trips, and spent months immersed in the beauty of the bush, living in tents. It was a spontaneous and unconventional decision, but the entire experience was nothing short of magical. Though our relationship didn't work out in the long run, I cherish the memories and the growth it brought me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer my culinary skills, preparing delicious meals and sharing recipes from different cuisines. With my yoga license, I specialize in restorative yoga and can guide others in finding relaxation and inner peace through gentle practices. I also practice meditation and am happy to share techniques for cultivating mindfulness. As a plant lover, I have some experience with orchids and other fascinating plants, and I'm enthusiastic about sharing my knowledge and tips for their care. Kindly know that I share these topics with humility, as I undertand in continuous learning and growth. I am in no way an expert in any of the above.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a guest on Couchsurfing, I bring with me a love for cooking and an appreciation for maintaining a tidy space. I enjoy preparing delicious meals and would be delighted to share my culinary skills with my hosts. Additionally, I invite you to take a look at my Airbnb profile for more information about my hosting and guest reviews.
