About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Let go.

ABOUT ME

I love to laugh and partake in any activity, especially if its natural, free and overlooked; simply reading out loud, writing in the woods, running down a trail at full speed, and anything else that gets the blood pumping and heart warm and fuzzy.

I practice self mastery in my actions, words and through meditation, then turn around, drink too much, dance like an animal and feel sick the next day. It's a process I suppose :) Overall I'm contempt.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't take life too seriously, it is not something you can grab onto, control or classify. Philosophers of the past have said that you are something the universe is "doing," like a wave in an ocean. So, ride out your wave, realize you are directly connected to everything else and be grateful to partake in this beautiful dream.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I currently do not have a couch available, I can make time to show surfers around the area or meet up for coffee.

Interests

I love traveling, sightseeing, eating new and interesting foods, flying, crafts and reading. I also have a soft spot for anime and Korean dramas *happy sigh* and after experiencing Bikram Yoga, I can't stop. My spirituality, health and the people around me are my biggest interests.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 18 I had my first solo flight in a Cessna 152. I immediately felt the epitome of freedom and serenity, as I left everything and everyone on the ground. I was nervous of course, but immediately fell in love with my new relationship with the sky.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share knowledge on aviation, teach a little guitar and keyboard and dive deep into metaphysical conversations.

One day I would like to learn how to play drums and improve my surfing skills!
