About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and see it all!

ABOUT ME

Well if you asked my friends on me what would they say?? Well I come with a witty sense of humor. I am pretty carefree and not much gets me upset. Definitely adventurous. I love dinging out here in Crete! Best views I have ever seen. Food and wine are superb! Life don't get much better!

PHILOSOPHY

I have no time for rudeness and arrogance. Just be happy and enjoy what you got. No matter how hard you think you might have it, there is ALWAYS someone worse off then you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined CS back in 2011 to help save funds on a trip I needed to do in Germany. It was a Godsend! I love the ideals behind this website! Despite the fact you do not know the person who is coming or your going to share a space with (may make some people nervous) it allows you to meet locals and even see first hand the lifestyle that takes place in that location. No tour guide will give you this experience. After participating in surfing myself, I decided to go ahead and host. It was a excellent way to meet people and share experiences!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed in a few places in Germany. All treated me so well. I was not there for leisure and was always on the go with a tight schedule. Yet this was ok for the ones who accepted me to stay. It helped me save the much needed money I needed while I was there and it really saved my skin! I almost feel obligated by offering the same!

Interests

I like sightseeing. Have realized there is so much to this world I have not seen and still at the age its not to late to go out there and see it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Any movies that have Tommy Lee Jones, Harrison Ford, Sean Penn, and Nicholas Cage in it. Pretty solid Dean R Koontz fan as well for books! Music...haha well I grew up in the States during the 80's so MTV was my influence and during this time frame it was the Hair Bands! Love anything 80's!
