A family that conquers together, stays together.

Always check the expiration date.

If someone is blushing, do NOT point it out to them...it just gets worse.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS meetings! I have met up with other CSers but I haven't yet been able to host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's crazy that you can meet someone and become fast friends in a couple of days! I feel so incredibly lucky to meet people and learn about different cultures through CS

Interests

I love the concept of language and communication. I wish I could speak every language in the world so I could speak with everyone.

I spend my time laughing with my family; my sister is kind of my best friend and inspiration and my two older brothers always impart their knowledge of history and politics on me; our parents have been our biggest supporters in life for everything. I also spend a lot of time with my friends and it's always fun meeting new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The moment I signed the papers to go skydiving along with my sister, two brothers, and 78 year old Grandpa was a pretty amazing moment. It made me realize how short life is and how badass you have to be to go skydiving at the age of 78. Also my sister is an avid skydiver so I strive to be as adventerous as she is.

I studied in Puebla, Mexico for a month and got to hang out with a bunch of little kids at an orphange who were convinced that I knew the Jonas Brothers for the whole time I was there...There was no convincing them otherwise. It was my first experience in a foreign country by myself and I was so happy I did it! I can be a scaredy cat sometimes.
