CURRENT MISSION

Mission: learn more about the world around me. And how to be as compassionate as possible.... A challenge for sure

ABOUT ME

I suppose I am a free spirited loving soul who finds peace in real conversation. I connect with nature as much as people and enjoy nothing more than being a foreigner.
I have been privileged enough to start my traveling experiences at a young age, and love nothing more to pack my bag and be on my way. I have discovered such genuine individuals all around the world and look forward to finding more.
I like to think I am a fairy of some sort who sends out good energy to the universe. Laughing softens my heart and positivity makes me smile. I am an extrovert who feeds off of others and wouldn't be who I am without the amazing people I have met around the world and at home.
I truly believe that "happiness is only real when shared."

PHILOSOPHY

I hope to pursue a career in psychology, though the specifics are not completely worked out yet. I would like to learn more about sex therapy and incorporate that into my life at some point, and i also hope to create a business incorporating gardening with therapy in my later years. Communication is key and guiding those in the right direction to communicate more efficiently would be such an accomplishment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was fortunate enough to come across the nicest man in Calafate, Argentina who took my friend and I in as family. He took us hiking, made us dinner, and treated us with much respect. Finding him in a small town so far away from anything was like finding a gem in a desert. Needless to say we were spoiled.

On my travels north from Calafate, We were able to couch surf with a friend in Santiago. What a find that was as well. He let us stay for a month while we were in and out of Chile. His hospitality gave me hope in humanity.

Interests

Hiking, reading, any type of cuisine, experiences in alternate realities, giggles, sunshine, and good vibes...anything that will add to my life in a positive way, no matter how big or small ( empanadas to sandboarding). I also love plants and would love to become a better gardener : )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once hiked an active volcano in the snow in Pucon, Chile.
This was an amazing opportunity and it was definitely a challenge. After this experience I felt closer to considering myself a "hiker". I never identified with that title because being from Florida..well.. Mountains are hard to come by.

Teach, Learn, Share

I hope to find a community of people that embrace one another and accept strangers instantly as friends. I look forward to learning the opinions, values, experiences, frustrations, skills, and life lessons from those who I host and those who host me.
>I can offer a smile, positivity, and good vibes : )
