About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world

ABOUT ME

I love my family and friends, I love to laugh, I love animals, and I love traveling. I feel like I'm always planning my next vacation, whether it be a weekend trip for a music festival or a month long trip overseas.

Friends would say that I'm really easy-going and always up for a good time! I enjoy spending quality time with my loved ones and also quality time with myself. I like to work out and especially enjoy running (when it's not minus 30 degrees...).

PHILOSOPHY

I'll try to sum it up with a series of quotes:

"Live life to the fullest. It's the best way. Live every moment intensely because life is too short, and the moment comes when we're going to die and we'd have wished to do so many things we didn't. That's why we have to enjoy the moment. One must enjoy life. Try not to acquire so many things, but instead have experiences. Accomplish everything you want to do, no matter the effort that it deserves. Life is too short and one must relish it" - Filberto (Season 2 Ep 11, Departures)

"Life is only as good as the memories we make..."
- The Ataris (So Long Astoria)

"Try to learn something about everything and everything about something." - Thomas H. Huxley

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am completely new to this but I'm excited to try it out! I'm hoping to meet some great new people and see some amazing places

UPDATE: Just had my first couchsurfing experience and it was AWESOME. My only regret is not trying this sooner in my travels.

Interests

I'm fairly active (working out, running), and I also enjoy reading, listening to music (love going to concerts!), watching movies and going out for dinner with friends.
