I choose to be happy, no point sweating the small stuff. Forever a student, I find travel to be the most enriching classroom. Connecting with others and our planet feeds my soul. I'm a recovering masochist, so no more Sad Book Club or Drama me Happy. If I'm not laughing or being tickled by documentaries of yarn or Planet Earth, I'm out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

YOU have much to say and teach, I'm all ears!

Interests

Family and friends are everything.
My camera is my bestest buddy. Growing as a photographer is a huge source of pride.
Nothing beats that moment when you hit a summit.
I love all animals, my dog Boris the most.
Art and Nature are non-negotiables in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I grew up on a healthy dose of punk and ska, and everything my Mexican mother loved; Juan Gabriel and Sinatra, and a little Bach... Eddie Vedder is my forever boyfriend.

Sunshine of the Spotless Mind continues to tug at my heart.

Novakov is my man.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
