Hi there! Maylise here!

I am very excited to be on here and meet locals in new places. Born and raised in Miami Fl and recently moved back to help grow my community. I am an adventurer, dancer, artist, creator, and an authentic leader. I laugh often, smile a lot, and rather receive a hug than a wave. Life is too short and I am committed to living a life of gratitude and know that we are all one. I have a degree in design and really appreciate the built environment and its creators, but the people using them are what really counts. Although I am moving away from working in that field, I'm thrilled to experience new surroundings and perspectives the world has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Recently I have decided to take some time to be inspired by the world around me and start a new path in life. I would love to explore the world through the lives of those who know it best. I'm currently traveling through Europe and have been wanting to take a solo trip like this for a very long time. In my opinion, meeting locals is the best way to learn about the city. I'm not crazy about sight seeing, although some things are worth seeing, I rather check out your favorite cafe, or bar, some local live music, natural scenery, etc. Connect! I love people and new places :) Hopefully you would like to come with or just tell me where and I'll find it :) let's make some memories and maybe get into some gold old fashion mayhem!

Interests

Dancing is my passion. I can teach you a thing or two. I'm an active person and love exploring. An experience junky and I'm always looking to create more. Beach volley ball, concerts and live music, eating delicious food, drinking tasty beers or a smoked scotch, chillen at a park, and connecting to others are some of the things!

Music, Movies, and Books

Lately I have been listening to a lot of deep house but love many types of genres. It depends on my mood. Hip hop and funk are always a good time and I can really appreciate live jazz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One is too hard to choose! But I do have to say that finally seeing the aurora and exploring Iceland was pretty amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I plan to learn acro yoga and teach but I'm a great lead if you ever want to do some yoga. Sharing is everything! Share food, life lessons, advise, trust, stories. That's why we do this, right?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my entire living space excluding my bedroom. My kitchen, living room and bathroom is all available to you. If I make any meals, you are more than welcome to join.
