CURRENT MISSION

Assume the best!

ABOUT ME

¡Quiero perderme un rato en España! I'm embarking on my first solo trip in Spain and Portugal for the month of October and looking forward to making new friends abroad and just going with the flow.

I’m really good at Taboo and Apples to Apples, dreaming, sexual innuendo, alliteration, and tapping various body parts along to music. I am also an adept scrambler of eggs and a voracious consumer of ketchup.

The six things I could never do without:
biking and swimming
music
reading and writing
sunshine
stimulating intercourse (both kinds)
language

PHILOSOPHY

I live to laugh and learn and love. I'm becoming more aware of my own emotional states. And working on assuming the best in people, decisions, and the future.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm traveling around Spain in October 2011, and hope to visit Portugal and perhaps Morocco. I'd like to host other couchsurfers when I have my own place.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Studying abroad in Barcelona has gotta be near the top. And I just experienced the Grand Canyon this summer.
