CURRENT MISSION

“The important thing is this: To be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.” - Charles DuBois

ABOUT ME

Well, my friends and family are the most important part of my life. I love music of many kinds & love finding new music/musicians. I love to sing, write (mostly poetry), read, sleep, watch movies/tv, crochet (i know it's nerdy, but it's relaxing & a cheaper way to have scarves!), spend time in nature, and have deep conversations. I love kids. I love cats, and Iâ

PHILOSOPHY

life is what you make it, and love is the only thing that really matters in the end. so I’m trying to love those around me the best I can, and enjoy everything for what it is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

for now, i'm just a surfer or meeting for drinks... can't offer a couch now, but hopefully someday I’ll be able to!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

surfed in northern Romania over new year's and it was amazing!!

Interests

lots… see about me. I pretty much enjoy learning about anything new, but I wish I was more proactive about that. I also love gymnastics, I did it for 8 years when I was younger and really miss it. I love watching football, especially the Colts!! I quite enjoy going out with my friends and having a good time ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

music: sooo much, but here's what i've been listening to the most lately - the material, cartel, brand new, sigur ros, a fine frenzy, margot & the nuclear so-&-so's (local from Indy), kate voegele, emery, beck, anna nalick, coldplay... oh i also love big-band/swing music, and classical (but not beethoven - freaks me out)

movies: a sampling of my faves - garden state, love actually, the holiday, moulin rouge, cool hand luke, the bourne series, the rock, black hawk down, hots shots part deux, romeo & juliet (baz luhrmann version), roman holiday, breakfast at tiffany's... the list goes on & on

books: cry, the beloved country; Pride & Prejudice; Emma; the last time i was me; a walk to remember; eat, pray, love

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

seeing a Romanian orphan's face light up and break into a huge smile when they see me enter a room... and then running up to hug & kiss me

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Spanish, and a little Romanian. I could teach how to crochet, lol. I’d love to learn how to cook/bake things. And new languages are always fun. I also love photography and would like to learn more about that.
