CURRENT MISSION

To embrace a time of transition and open the doors to the undending possibilities that life may bring my way.

ABOUT ME

I am currently a restless soul and can't seem to stay in one place for too long. I've got the traveling itch!

A small town girl at heart. I like to do things that scare me just to prove myself that I can. Sometimes I make strange noises and burst out laughing for no apparent reason- some people think its crazy, but I just think its fun. I love to go out and paint the town red or just snuggle up with a blanket, a good book or friend, and some wine- either way I am content. Laid back and drama-free is how I intend to be. Usually find myself rushing around because I like to wait until the last minute! I aim to be helpful and contribute and don't mind a day's hard work. Love to experience nature and all that she has to offer. Love adventures, new places, and new faces.

PHILOSOPHY

Balance is key.

What one puts out into the world is what one will receive back-an open and positive mind and a kind heart will get you a long way in this mad but beautiful world.

Mother nature is a very powerful and magical entity-truly the best medicine. Turn to her for guidance, healing, and rejuvenation.

It is not necessarily what happens to you in this life time that will make you or break you, but how you handle and respond to situations.

Show love and respect to yourself and all beings and the rest will follow.

Give generously and receive gracefully!

Be silly and laugh laugh laugh!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

About to experience my first couchsurfing adventure in Austin, Texas! STOKED!

Hope to be able to Host as soon as my brain and body become grounded in one place for a minute or two!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I lived in Northern California for 5 beautiful years of my life where lots of wandering souls seem to find themselves. My house earned the name Hotel Ross Street. The couches and floors were always occupied with someone in need of a place to stay- and I absolutely loved it! I loved meeting new people-hearing their stories and being able to become apart of their adventures and travels and create friendships. I am so excited to extend myself into the larger part of the couchsurfing community and cannot wait to see who may cross my path! You just never know who your gonna meet, when your gonna meet them, or how they will make an imprint in your life.
