CURRENT MISSION

To surf and be surfed to make the travelling experience awesome for everyone!

ABOUT ME

My name is Melissa, I'm 23, and love to be active be outside (when the weather here isn't above 100 degrees). I'm kind of shy at first, but am very outgoing and silly once I open up a little. I am adventurous, relaxed, and up for just about anything. I like to meet new people and make new contacts wherever I go, and just love traveling to new places :)

PHILOSOPHY

Do it to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm only surfed and gone to meetups, but I'm working on getting my roomies to agree to open up our home :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a handful of times and have met incoming couch surfers at friends places and meetups. So far the experience has been wonderful and I look forward to future surfing. I've met with a lot of CSers for hanging out and it has made my time in life just that much more interesting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm awestruck by too many things, easily amused and such :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love meeting people who have different interests from mine and learning about why they like one activity over another and what they do. I love talking with people from around the world to compare and contrast their norms, beliefs, and values and learn about everything and anything.
