CURRENT MISSION

My mission, to explore the world! See places none of my close friends and family have never seen before!

ABOUT ME

I will start off with my age ! I am 21 years old and currently studying abroad at the University of Potsdam (in Germany). I've been living here for about 2.5 months and in August I will be traveling 3 places: Barcelona, France, and Ireland. I never imagined i would be traveling Europe, but i am living proof. But other than that, i consider myself a down to earth mellow person who is trustworthy.I am hard working and enjoy working for my own expenses. Currently, this is the longest time i have ever gone without seeing my parents but it is time to grow up! My hometown is La Puente, California which is located in Southern California within Los Angeles city boundaries but I go to school in San Diego. My major is Urban studies and planning and in the future i wish to work within the Public sector and give back to the community!

PHILOSOPHY

I love to live life according to my own standards. I love to help and please others whenever possible and gain respect amongst honesty. I believe that one should be loyal to others and whenever possible to give back to the people and the community.... I have seen so much throughout my life and have suffered, and for this reason I believe I am a strong person.... for this reason i am majoring in urban studies and planning with a minor in ethnic studies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Participate! honestly, I never heard of couch surfing until my friend informed me of this opportunity and I had to sign up!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Do uncles, friends and family count? yeah i've never couch surfed in my life but hopefully i will able to have a new experience.

Interests

Myself, I love music, art, and I have an obsession with sports. I love to watch sports and play sports. I played basketball throughout middle and high school and enjoy playing in my spare time! As for art, I honestly attempt to draw but at times the vision inside my head is not portrayed onto paper or canvas! in the other hand my sister is the artistic one in the family!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love indie music and everything in between! I like to listen to sade, red hot chilli pepers, the projectors, mellow music in which i am able to relax.... music with powerful words... and of course hip hop! I love to listen to throw backs alot!

Movies, I am a chick flick person with action! I hate scary movies with a passion since i have a phobia against blood (disgusting) ... how to loose a guy in 10 days, some indipendent films found on netflix....

Books, i wish i grew up reading books but i find it difficult to sit down in the living room and read while the tv is on... but the last book i read for enjoyment was the skeleton key!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing i have ever done was deciding to study abroad in Germany! I believe i have made life lasting friends here and a memory i will always hold on to.

Teach, Learn, Share

teach others to be able to communicate without fear. Not to be shy! I would like to learn different cultures and different ways of living. I have been limited to my hispanic culture back in California and i would like to learn others ways of living. Share, share my knowledge. Be able to share time and place.
