CURRENT MISSION

To: make friends in the Lafayette area, pet every dog I see, learn how to knit socks, find the most creative foods to eat.

ABOUT ME

I'm a southern gal from Texas and North Carolina.
I love to be active, to play sports or games; I am on an Ultimate Frisbee team and I also like skiing, running, and biking.
I also love to be creative- painting, usually making stuff with my hands, ceramics, photography, crafty stuff.
I'm also a big fan of watching: people watching, sports watching, movie watching... you know, the usual.

I'm not quite sure yet what I'm doing with my life. I have a big dream of creating a cross-cultural program where students from developing communities within the States (especially Native Tribes in the process of nation building) with students from developing parts of the Middle East. I lived in Jordan for the summer and I really fell in love with the country- and I think we all have a lot to learn from each other.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm looking for coffee and drinks just to meet awesome people around me, because I just moved across the country. Once I get on my feet I will hopefully be able to host and travel around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I've just heard folks talk all about their wonderful CS experiences and anticipating my own!
