CURRENT MISSION

To live my life in a way that inspires others

ABOUT ME

This is always such a daunting task, and I never know exactly what to write. Do I write stats- 5'8, non-smoker, etc.? Hmm. I guess that would be more for a personal ad. :) So complicated. I am just me...nothing more...nothing less. I strive to live a life of integrity.

PHILOSOPHY

Persevere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to be able to one day give back by assisting an individual who has dreams of traveling but needs help in making them come to fruition.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well...quite honestly, when my friend first told me about CouchSurfing, my initial reaction was, "Say what? You suggest I do what?!" Let's just say that it took me a moment to wrap my head around the idea, but I'm so glad that I finally did. I've had the pleasure of being hosted by some incredible individuals whose kindness, generosity, and sheer goodness not only greatly enriched my travels but also helped renew my faith in humanity in general.

Interests

DANCING! EATING! LAUGHING! (in any order) These three trump all other interests.

Beyond my aforementioned "happy life trifecta", I have a wide range of interests from traveling to sports to music (all styles) to the arts to...the list goes on and on. I also enjoy stimulating conversation. My favorite styles of music are jazz and classical. I am not a partier. I enjoy quiet evenings at home, going to the movies, taking leisurely walks, people watching, etc. I'm all about enjoying the simple things in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a movie fanatic. It doesn't take much to make me happy. Take me to a movie and give me a slice of pizza and I'm content. :)

One of my biggest goals is to read the Bible from cover to cover. This is much easier said than done.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived through extreme heartache and came out smiling.
