I'm a small business owner and a mom, living in Houston, Texas. I enjoy visiting new places, experiencing new cultures, and meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hopefully to get a less "touristy" experience when I travel and gain the ability to really see what life looks like in new places and reciprocate.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:Mostly instrumental, but classical, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and incubus are my favorites.
Books: Ishmael, The Elegant Universe, Brave New World, perks of being a wallflower, the Bible, middle eastern conflict historical accounts, the Forever War
Movies: not a big movie fan, but I do love a good coming of age storyline. Breakfast Club, little miss sunshine, fiddler on the roof.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roadtripped around Iceland staying at local farms, the country is exploding with awe filled sights at every turn. The people are lovely, and the northern lights are inexplicable.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about what places have to offer from regular people like me and would love to do the same.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to bring a more positive world view of Americans and christians to other people and places. Recently, I barely recognize who and what my country is becoming, but I would love to change the minds of anyone who is willing to see that there are still wonderful, respectful, and hospitable folks who are from the USA.
