CURRENT MISSION

Make the most out of life. Focus on loving and taking care of myself and be brave enough to seize every moment, opportunity ...

ABOUT ME

Love travel so I host when possible. I need a few hours of outdoor activities every day to feel normal. Being outdoors gives me energy, focus and happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been a host for as long as I can remember, and I have yet to be hosted on Couchsurfing. I also manage a portfolio of rentals, but sold most of my real estate assets in 2022 to take advantage of the market, spend more time traveling and learning new skills.

Interests

Stay primal - in diet, exercise, mindset. No need to complicate life, so I just focus on the foundations so I can direct my energies to wholesome causes when and where I choose.
