CURRENT MISSION

find all the good things and wallow in them

ABOUT ME

I think it is important to interact with others genuinely, which I have found is sometimes hard to do when you don't know yourself as well as you should. I am in a constant process of learning about who I am by experiencing new people and different ways of life. I am very social, but I also enjoy time to myself which I spend reading, creating things with my hands, watching movies, sewing. I think the world has something new to show us everyday and we should soak it all up while we can.

PHILOSOPHY

Life comes before social pretense or social constructs! Learning from living is the most important way to feel human.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Reciprocity is the name of the game in a happy life, and as I have been showed such extreme hospitality I would love to return it when I can. I work a different schedule every week so it may be difficult at times to accommodate, but I will try!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friend Sarah and I started a CouchSurfing account in the summer of 2011 when we journeyed through Europe for six weeks. What we experienced was more than I ever could have dreamed of. This was so much more than a free place to crash, this brought a new and wider sense of community into my life and I have had only POSITIVE experiences!

Interests

Art! Literature, dining, DRINKING, traveling, learning, and generally being aware of the new things that can come from adventuring...
I also looooove food and it seems everywhere I visit I get a little heavier and a little happier :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Couchsurfing not only enriches your travel experience, but it really enriches the human experience! You get to meet fantastic people who open their home and their stories to you... in an age where technology seems to be distancing us from one another, couchsurfing is a wonderful tool for truly connecting again.
