CURRENT MISSION

Leaving South America, heading back home for 3 weeks.

ABOUT ME

Hey there! I'd like to say that I have a pretty outgoing personality. I've traveled to Europe three times because my boyfriend lives there, and each time I have visited new places. Fall semester 2012 was spent in Cordoba Argentina, where i was introduced to many CS-ers there. it was such a lovely experience, how unselfish people are. If you guys happen to be visiting some of the places I've been to before, shoot me a message and I'll let you know what I thought of the city :-)

PHILOSOPHY

"A trip of a thousand miles begins with one step" so true, don't wait for the perfect moment to come because it might never come, just start planning and do it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have met a couple CS'ers and hung out. First experience as a surfer was in Argentina, there I was able to meet a bunch of the Córdoba CS community and we hung out pretty much weekly..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't had many, mainly because of fear of the unknown. But, I'd like to change that. Due to living in the middle of nowhere (the edge Texas in between New Mexico/Mexico) not that many travelers make it to great old El Paso :P I have met some people passing by and those experiences were always fun, so now I feel it's the time to keep those experiences rolling and listening to what other people have to say ;-)

Interests

I like art museums, contemporary being my favorite, I enjoy playing tennis, learning new languages (portuguese and german!), visiting new places and meeting new faces, reading, music, and watching cheesy Til Schweiger movies where he is always a player, and most recently soccer...I mean futbol!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-First solo trip to Los Angeles, CA

-Going to the concentration camps Auschwitz and Auschwitz2-Birkenau in Poland. The feeling being there was indescribable.

-Being in Rome with my best friend, getting lost and not being able to find our way to our camping site. Later asking for directions in what I believe was Italian...who knows how the man understood me but pointed to where we needed to go.

Seeing the view of Interlaken, Switzerland above a mountain.
