About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and meet new & interesting people

ABOUT ME

I like to experience new things that I have never tried. I like adrenaline rushes, like skydiving. I like dancing, especially swing dancing. I grow bored of SC often, which is why I wanted to join couch surfers.. hoping to have some fun inexpensive travel experiences (:
I love the outdoors. I workout at the gym but want to try some new types of exercises, i.e. hiking, mountain climbing, obstacle courses, anything adventurous!

PHILOSOPHY

I live to reach-out and help others overcome their fears and move beyond their setbacks in life.
Reach for your dreams!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started this journey, hoping to couch-surf first and then host people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All new to me!

And if you are wondering why I am not verified yet; it's because I live so far out in the boonies I'm not on the couch-surfer map. It's St. Stephen / Russelville, S.C. I have not figured out a solution to this problem yet.. thanks for your patience.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love inspirational movies and movies with a purpose or thought-provoking material the best! I also enjoy action and adventure.

East of Eden
Bible
The Shack
The Green Mile
Pay it Forward
Seven Pounds
Fast and The Furious
Memento
Fire Proof

I actually do not care for straight-up comedies; most of them I find to be mind-numbing / dumb (unless it's a romantic comedy or action/comedy.. just not plain comedy alone). I also do not like crude movies & things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went skydiving when I turned 18, and it was one of the most amazing and yet surprisingly relaxing experiences of my life.. at least once I got over the fear of jumping out of the airplane (:

My advice to everyone: If you have never done it, you should definitely try it at least once (even if you are afraid of heights). I doubt you will be disappointed!
