CURRENT MISSION

Experience life outside of my norm, meet all types of people and learn as much as I can.

ABOUT ME

I love people and all their wondrous ways. I find the world and us silly humans fascinating. You'll find that I am very accepting and adaptable to many environments. If I am uncomfortable I search for why, and try to change my perspective so that I can see yours. In this way I am always growing and learning and loving it! In the meantime, I am looking to have the most fun a human being can have!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So, far I have just couchsurfed on this site after living in a coop over 10 years ago. I loved having a full home that always had new traveling guests. We would often have people stay with us as guests for hours, days, weeks, or even months at a time. We had alot of rules to follow in the house, but they all fall under the basic premise of "Leave it cleaner than you found it." This way we can always leave a clean space for the next person. In this way, even though I have not technically "hosted" a Couch surfer, I have hosted many friends and strangers who became friends in my house. I have downsized since moving to San Diego but miss the energy of the space and decided to get back on couch surfing recently. I am looking forward to making new friends!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was in my 20s I couch surfed in Vietnam, Thailand, Bali, New Zealand and unofficially in San Diego, CA, and El Paso,TX (USA). I've met some amazing friends along the way and have had some unforgettable experiences and friendships. Recently trying this again since my partner and I are traveling and would like to meet amazing people as we go! Looking forward to the next adventure. <3

Music, Movies, and Books

Everything (almost). Lately I have been into fantasy smut as a break from all of my non-fiction. I Love all music I can feel in my soul.
