CURRENT MISSION Hey Guys! I don't check CS too much anymore. It's real crap since they went for-profit. Bliss conduit (one word) at g mail will get to me better. To continue to explore the world, searching for open-hearted, supportive, welcoming communities and meeting the people who make them so special. To go deeper within, to explore my self, my soul, my purpose. To make meaningful connections with others, to learn as much as I can. Share. Help. Serve. Love. ABOUT ME Open-minded, positive, full of life, friendly, loving. Spontaneous. I basically want to see it all, do it all, and live it all. I love my friends and I love my family. I am thankful and I am blessed. I am quirky and I am non-conventional. I dream of expat life, of a life in motion, within the flow. I am open to receiving and sharing the magic that exists. PHILOSOPHY Be nice to others! Be positive, be happy, and have fun. Be present, be productive. Live. Don't just do.... be.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I've surfed, I've hosted, I've done a lot of meetups and I'm always looking for more. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Couchsurfed across the southern United States, surfed in a FEMA trailer after Hurricane Katrina and in a hippy commune outside of Berlin. Some of the people I love most in the world are couchsurfers.
