Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm using my "studying" in Italy as an excuse to travel. I want to meet tons of new people, see everything that I can and do as much as possible.
ABOUT ME
I am an energetic gal which a fervor for seeing everything that I can while meeting new people that I can hang with. I'm definitely up for trying tons of new things, so that when I'm an old woman, I won't be saying I missed out on anything. My older sister passed me her snarky sarcasm; I never even had a chance. I'm a big fan of animals and get more upset when they die in movies than the actors. I really enjoy curling up with a good book, and I love watching any kind of movie and listening to any kind of music. I love when I meet a someone who introduces me to a new film or band. Learning new things is something else I enjoy, be it a new language, random facts, how to cook or surf, history, anything. I'm a chatty person, but I can be a good listener, as well. I'm a business major because it seemed like the most logical decision for the economic situation in America, and the easiest way to get a job out of college. I go to school in San Antonio, a great city. but I also love to write. I write poems, and I'm working on a novel, at the moment, but I'm quite reluctant to let people read them. Haha. I like to go dancing or have a chill night with some friends. Traveling as much as I have has definitely made me easy-going.
PHILOSOPHY
Live your life on the edge, but don't fall off the cliff. I just don't want to waste my life. Some people are dead before they even stop breathing because they don't take advantage of what they can do; that's not going to be me. I hate to be cliche, but... "live, laugh and love".
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I haven't had anyone couch surf at anywhere I've lived, and I, myself, haven't couch surfed anywhere yet either. Hopefully soon! I just learned about this from some friends recently, and I can't put up people right now because my roommates would not allow it, plus there is no where for someone else to sleep! But when I return back to San Antonio or Austin, I would be happy to let someone bunk up.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I don't have any, yet, but I hope that will change soon.
Interests
Writing, watching movies, reading, music of all kinds, snowboarding, water skiing, hiking, biking, dancing (club wise, unfortunately I don't know any legit types), swimming, running (I'm a big runner), surfing (never gone, but I would like to).
