ABOUT ME

I want to be a Middle School English Literature teacher, but before that I want to see the world, observe as many cultures as I can, and try all kinds of different activities, occupations, etc.

So maybe I'll finally get a real teaching job in a decade or so.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
- Dr. Seuss

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, I am just traveling. I have yet to couch surf, but I anticipate having a ton of fun when I do. I have heard about the fun times and amazing people that can be met through CS, and I can't wait to be a part of that!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Meeting people who have couch surfed.
They are hilarious and fun, and aspire to be one of them.

Interests

Camping is my jam! (I really love anything outdoors, but living in the wilderness is one of my favorite things to do. )

Playing sports and silly games where you run around in a non- or fake- competitive manner is an enjoyable activity.

Playing the tuba is lovely

Laughing is spectacular.

Reading is marvelous.

Biking is great.

Going to the Disco is a fun time.
