CURRENT MISSION

“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.” - Morgan, John Pierpont

ABOUT ME

I love so many things about life its hard to even try to write them all down. Life is about connecting with people who share your passions. Mine are creativity, art, good food, traveling, making friends, having real conversations about what's important in life, and understanding differences. I try not to get caught up with the normal, routine of everyday life and I love when life completely surprises me.
I am studying to get my Master's degree in teaching English at FIU in Miami. I love teaching and really experiencing other cultures by living in a place. So it will be my ticket to the world :)

PHILOSOPHY

I really try not to let the little things get in the way of being happy, I always try to remind myself that if it won't matter in a year from now its not worth your time worrying about it today.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
