CURRENT MISSION

To laugh as much as possible every single day!

ABOUT ME

I went to art school, it was fun. On a different note, I'm unemployed. But the moment I thought about traveling to Europe, signs started appearing in front of me! Then I remembered... wait, I can do whatever I want! I'm going to go to Europe and have some fun!

PHILOSOPHY

I really think holding yourself back from your own pleasure causes lifelong stress.

The only way to find happiness is to get a little crazy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My friend Kristin and I (we're traveling together for a bit in Spain and France) are just beginning to take advantage of this site, so I admit I haven't offered my couch to anyone yet. I only have a one-way ticket at this point, but as soon as I get back in town I'm going to put up my 2 couches on the site (assuming I have a good rating by then :)
)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

none yet actually surfing, but have met some people on this site in Barcelona and ended up making food, drinks, and going out around the town a few times. Really, super nice crowd so far.

Interests

I can shamelessly admit that I have a moderate addiction to the internet.
I also started doing stand-up comedy! I'm doing short gigs at small places to get my confidence up, and even though it's just the beginning I like where it's going!
I also like cooking (again, beginning), longboarding, ....OH YEAH! I also love drinking. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Sharon Jones, David Byrne, Nick Cave, Tom Waits ... but I pretty much love any live show!

Favorite movies are: Natural Born Killers, Angel Heart, and Blue Velvet

Favorite books are: Unbearable Lightness of Being (Milan Kundera), Stranger in a Strange Land (Robert Heinlein)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once my friend said she was throwing nuts at a raccoon in her yard, and the raccoon turned around and caught one in his hands, and she fainted.

Teach, Learn, Share

A while ago my mom told me I should probably have a list of goals I want to achieve in my lifetime. But the part of life that I love the most is that it is so unexpected, and the more I live the more I learn about what I love, and what makes me happy. I don't know where I'll end up, but I know I'm going to love getting there. My main goal on my list is to let go of all judgement. I'm on my way!
