CURRENT MISSION

To explore the vast world around me - to enjoy the depth of each moment, and not let a single thing pass me by.

ABOUT ME

If you talked to my best friends, they would tell you that I am outgoing, empathetic, and maybe a little too loud... but always trying my best to make the most of every opportunity. I love to laugh, and I love to play, and I especially love to meet new people. I do not want couch surfing to just be a way to travel, but a way to change the way I experience life.

My dad always says "If you're not living life on the edge, you're taking up too much room". I want to travel to find those edges! To find as many new people, places, and activities as I can, to have my life overflow with love.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't think I will ever have a personal philosophy that will not be subject to change, but for now:

1. Approach every experience as an opportunity to learn.
2. Create the life you want.
3. Try to eat healthy but chocolate is a necessary evil.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My roommates in Buffalo were also members of couch surfing, and we hosted a lot of people in 2011-2012. Everyone has been really wonderful and respectful - the same courtesy I hope to give to others.

I crashed on some couches when traveling in Guatemala and Mexico as well!

2017 Update: I have been out of the Couchsurfing world for awhile but am getting my bearings again.

Interests

I really love artistic exploration, be it visual, auditory or movement based. I love to sing and write, and am hoping to improve my musical abilities over time. New instruments, here I come! I also can't get enough of the outdoors; swimming, hiking, camping, making daisy chains, sunbathing, biking, whatever. If it's happening outside, count me in.

Flow arts, shenanigans, warm pretzels, great music, good people.
