CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm always on the move. The World is big and time is limited! Go see all the places! Today is the day!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing offers adventure, learning opportunities and the chance to make new friends in a way that hotels can't.

Interests

As a small business owner, I'm going in six different directions on any given day. But I always make time for me. Mental health, physical health and remembering to have a life while making a living are incredibly important to the work-life balance. Tomorrow is never a guarantee, so do the things today.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have lived life to the fullest with very few regrets. Remember, tomorrow is never guaranteed, so do all the things today.

I've been fortunate enough to travel to all seven continents, twice. Some of it when I raced BMX for Team USA and some of it when I embarked on the journey of a lifetime. I've ridden the iron ore train across Mauritania, sailed the Drake Passage to Antarctica, competed in the 2008 Olympic Trials in China, partied with several million people in Buenos Aires when Argentina won the World Cup, hiked to Machu Picchu in Peru and Everest Base Camp in Nepal, and most recently, became a licensed skydiver. Grab life by the cojones and get after it!

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages. Born into a French and Portuguese household, I should be trilingual but alas, I am not. I'm learning French and Spanish but have been struggling with conversation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share coffee. I have lots of it!
