I am independent, respectful, grateful, and have simple needs. I love living a seasonal lifestyle and don't mind packing up and changing my scenery. I'm currently working in a tiny desert town on the Utah/Arizona border, and can't wait to get back to a Caribbean winter.

My work history is mostly in food and beverage.

I'm a morning person and love dawn for walking, yoga and meditation

Meeting new people, learning new cultures, getting lost in a new town, falling in love, trying new foods, dancing, music and laughing...these things keep me alive

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing has connected me with some amazing people. There is nothing like arriving in a new city, out of your element, and being welcomed in by another generous human

I love to meet new people, learn to live like a local, and share my spirit. I always hope to bring a smile to the people in my life

Interests

Barefoot as much as possible.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a little bit of everything and I love discovering new jams. Indie rock, soca and calypso, folk, pop... :) and I'd love to hear what you're listening to!

I can never find anything to watch on cable, but sometimes I just love a good Netflix binge. I like to catch the Late Show with Colbert and the Nightly News on YouTube.

Won't watch horror flicks

I love to read, and enjoy exploring a lot of topics. I usually just grab best sellers at the thrift store and see where it takes me.

I like podcasts and subscribe to Jay Shetty's On purpose, Ryan Holiday's Daily Stoic, Jordan Harbinger, and Mel Robbins just to name a few.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learned to captain a 37' inflatable raft through some of the toughest rapids in the world through Grand Canyon. I've logged almost 50 trips so far.

I've also had the courage to follow my heart and listen to that little voice inside that led me down the unconventional path. No marriage, no kids, no real estate.

If you've read this far, answer me this question in your hosting request: what has been your favorite job?

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about the Grand Canyon, living in a van, St Croix island in the Caribbean, and I'm a pretty good cook and bartender.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm positive, practical, and friendly. I can cook a meal, clean up after myself, and totally respect your space.
