About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See as many people and places as I can!

ABOUT ME

I love to Travel. I love to see the world. And I love people to see the world as I see it, which is why I'm so deeply into photography. I love to help people, so I've volunteered in India, and nannied in Germany.
I'm a theater student focusing on Costume Design and I'm really into photography, not just digital, but experimenting with film and different analog cameras. So if I'm around You, I'll probably ask you if I can take your picture!

PHILOSOPHY

Deep down, we all want the same thing, so why should we waste so much time on negative feelings and emotions and fighting? Let's all travel and HAVE FUN!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have yet to have my first Couch Surfing experience! But After doing so much traveling, I'm excited to try it out! I can't wait to have my own place so I can have CSfers of my own! But in the meantime, I'm going to have to settle for being a surfer myself! :) I hope to meet people as weird as me!!!

Interests

Theater, Photography, music, dancing, Art history, Gardens, Walking, Old Buildings, Museums, FOOD! I love Snowboarding, chatting, watching movies, going to old theaters and seeing old movies, I love to people watch! I love to sit in places in the world and write in my journals or read a book. I'm not really into clubs or pubs, but I'll go to one once in a while to hang out and people watch!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love the arts! I own hundreds of movies, because I LOVE to watch movies! It's not a waste of time to me, It's a hobby. I love old movies, new movies, comedies, action, tragedies. I love typical movies, and I love odd movies no one has heard of. I don't necessarily like movies that are all symbolism and "weird." hahaha.
I love to read. And my taste is pretty diverse. I love historical novels, I love mysteries, and fun novels. I love young adult novels like Rick Rordian, Brandon Mull, and the Harry potter series. I love the classics. I love books where I can bond with a character, get to know them and grow attached to them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent months in India working with people affected with Leprosy. I also taught at a school for their children teaching English. It changed my life and I've never been so happy than I was at that time.

Teach, Learn, Share

Things I can teach? I can teach how to be awesome. Okay I'm kidding.
