CURRENT MISSION

There are stories to make and I'm out to get them!

ABOUT ME

After graduating in May 2010 from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock I moved to Minneapolis, MN to start a career.
I love spontaneity and adventure. When I asked my friend in MN what I should do when I graduated they said "why not stay with me and find a job!". So, on a whim, I did. Go figure I'd be living in this place starting a new life.
Now that I have the time and money to do what I want I turn to you, dear couchsurfer, to let me continue my dream of adventure!

PHILOSOPHY

"Que sera sera"
I find it hard to understand how so many people can get so mad or frustrated. Things alway work out, one way or another.
Coincidentally I have found that I'm quite Stoic by nature (http://goo.gl/uPlqJ).
I find the nature of people to be infinitely fascinating and will forever seek to understand them.

I don't get overly excited nor do I get overly sad.

Generally, I keep to myself and observe my surroundings all the while enjoying everything I experience be it negative or positive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to stay active in the local Minneapolis community by going to most events, helping those who need it, and participating in the organizing of any big gatherings such as the Twin Cities Couchfest.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since becoming active in Couchsurfing Februrary of 2011 I've been to 5 couch crashes and counting. I consider most of my close friends Couchsurfers now and can't imagine my life without them. I'v met so many amazing people I can hardly believe it's real.
I'm even currently living with a Couchsurfer!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have lived in pursuit of what could be and found what was.

More concretely, I have formed relationships all over the world and continue to maintain them. I care about everyone I form a relationship with and keep that close forever.

In fact! I took a roadtrip around the US for 2 weeks with someone I had never met from Germany. That's a whole long story which you'll have to ask me about :)

But our trip is here!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love people and the relationships I build with them.
Each new person I meet is something to cherish. I do my best to be all of what I can be for them.
