Hi, I'm Whitney! I'm a massage therapist who just opened my own business in Cleveland, Ohio. I love my city. I am a total animal person; I have 2 dogs & a cat who are the lights of my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes, it becomes very hard to travel. You know, the whole money thing ;) Meeting cool people and seeing destinations from a locals point of view is so enticing. I cannot wait to meet cool people and see more of the world from the best perspective available.

Music, Movies, and Books

Just so many. Music wise, Beatles are my favorite but really I like anything that's not heavy metal. I love learning about the human mind so a lot of books I read are Psychology related.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One? Uhhhmmmmmm, I don't think I can name one. If I had to name my most zen moment it was probably waking up on the bank of the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon is incredible, if youre an American and do nothing else in your life, see the Grand Canyon.
Also, I climbed Mt Kilimanjaro and some of the views you see from a mountain really make you appreciate the planet earth.
If you don't see the Grand Canyon then go to Africa, it will change your life. Also, I stayed at a working ranch once on a plateau in Utah and almost got trampled by a herd of horses while watching a sunrise and had to hide behind a tree. That is a memory that I love.

Teach, Learn, Share

Uhmm I’m probably selling myself short here.
