About Me

I am trying to live a life that totally fulfills my hopes, dreams and desires. In 2018 I traveled to 18 countries in 8 months. This is something that I have planned to do 2 different times in the past, but circumstances stopped both. it was an incredible experience and I’m glad I finally did it.

Also, I have been saving up money to start a Kava/Enthobotanical Tea House and Community Center over the past 5 years. When living in Florida, I was inspired by the concept and sense of family/community they all have. I love bringing people together and making them smile. I am into sustainable living and creating a life/business that brings people together as a community. My ultimate dream would be owning a large piece of property to share with others to come, live, and learn how to better themselves and the world around us.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is great staying with new people in different countries on Couchsurfers. You make great bonds with strangers who invite you into their homes out of a love of meeting new people and learning about different cultures of those people. In the end, every time I stayed with someone, I had a great experience and learned a lot about the country and city they lived in... and made some long term friends out of it.
