Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love hearing other people's traveling stories and meeting people of different cultures and lifestyles. Perspective is everything! I think if you are a college student and not talking to people who are different than you, you are doing college wrong. It's about total immersed in the culture and the people in a new place not just staying there. I wouldn't trade the Couchsurfing experience for anything. Once I started traveling, I have realized how small the world is; everyone has the same problems/ dreams/experiences as you, you are not alone in the way you feel.
Music, Movies, and Books
I am a big fan of the old Taylor Swift. I like everything from alternative to the oldies like Fleetwood Mac and indie bands. I read a lot of business and statistical books. I like Catcher in the Rye, How to make friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie, the Noise and the Sound by Nate Silver
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I have gone skydiving and ran a marathon
Teach, Learn, Share
i have a lot to learn from everyone I talk to but I also have a lot the teach. I once read if you want love, a friend, money first you have to love, be a good friend and give money away; I think that is the best advice and am working with on it every day. I want to learn from you and listen to the way you see the world. I want to learn how to cook meals from other cultures. I have a fascination for learning and I hope it never goes away.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can share my sense of adventure and outgoing personality. I have an open mind and plenty of stories to tell of me being dumb.
