Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Hi I have a flight to Lima, Peru on Monday and have a layover (19 hours) in Boston! I am trying to figure out the most cost-effective plan and figured I'd try this before heading to Miraflores :) Plus, it would be nice to meet people since I've never been to Boston before :)
Music, Movies, and Books
I love all kinds of music! Electronic, some trap, and Bachata! Movies: "Eat, Pray, Love" (ahaha), The Godfather, and Ronaldo the Movie lol (Hala Madrid!) Books : Siddartha, The Secret, Big Magic, and I'm a sucker for motivational kindle reads!
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Wrote an eBook that's on Amazon, Got a song I wrote signed under contract with a German indie record label, and booked a flight to Lima, Peru to start my life of traveling and seeing different cultures (I've only been on a plane once in my life at age ) lol
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm ready to LEARN!
What I Can Share With Hosts
Laughs and motivation! I wrote a book and have a brand called "The Dream Motivator" which talks about exactly what I have done in the last few months. I was always terrified of disapproval and felt I had to live my life according to "societal norms". I have always been a passionate and creative person and by blocking that an just working in corporate jobs I hated (and were solely for a paycheck) I blocked my happiness. Taking risks in life is scary, but I definitely love to encourage others and talk about life experiences and share stories! I would love to do that :)
