CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy and live each life stage to its fullest or without worry!

ABOUT ME

I am named after my Mom's favorite author, Emily Bronte.

PHILOSOPHY

It takes 10,000 hours to be truly good at something.

You never know until you try.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the cultural and intellectual exchange on a local level. It's always exciting to experience a foreign country as a local rather than as someone on the outside!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet, but I'm looking forward to trying!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef.

Hiked 26 miles in one day (with a full pack).

Swam with Bottle-Nosed Dolphins.

Seen Paul McCartney, Tom Petty, & U2 in concert.

Watched Roger Federer warm up for an hour and a half AND got his autograph.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach people how to play tennis, how to juggle, and how to do the wobble.

I would love to learn how to sail, a new language(s), and simple songs to play on the guitar.
