About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is just to enjoy life and to do as much as I can with this one little life I have. : )

ABOUT ME

I like to laugh and am a little shy at first, but am quirky and pretty funny. I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and am a nurturer by nature. I like helping out and volunteer when I can.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophies:
It's all about character
Safety in numbers!
Do not bring shame to your family name
For the honor!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because hotels are super expensive and I like being part of a community that allows for people to see the country (and the world) without spending 200 dollars a night for a place to sleep. I also love meeting new people from all walks of life and learning about them and their experiences. It's just a wonderful experience. I've hosted and have surfed and thus far, everything has been great! : )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Never wake a sleeping baby to eat, when they are ready, they will wake themselves. :) Know how to change a tire! When you are wrong, and you will be wrong, say it, own it, and learn from it. Safety in numbers! Smile!
