CURRENT MISSION

to get the freeek out of tucson and onto some couches in colder places than this!

ABOUT ME

Pretty easy to get along with, quiet, I try to leave a small footprint if you know what I mean...I do well in small crowds, small crowds of one or two. I enjoy being outside, drawing pictures with another person and immitating chicken noises. I have a cat named Chikin, but I refuse to get more that one seeing as I am single and live alone in a one room studio, more than one would constitute being a cat lady, which I am not opposed to, only I am too young to have my life overrun by felines. But, maybe one day..

PHILOSOPHY

currently in an existential crisis. i have yet to see the light at the end of the tunnel. ask me another time about this one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still new at this. Ask me again in six months.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

my brother couch surfs, and me? i just watch and like to have coffee with strangers.

Interests

cats, music, drawing, Mexican American Studies, immigration issues, being outside, having a long day in the sun, being a little sunburny and then going for a drink and falling asleep early, waking up at night and watching a movie. THATS my favorite kind of day. Although I am in the desert, I love the ocean. Fortunately they are a little alike. I am a little bit in a big ocean. An ocean of dirt. But it has an open sky and when its really hot, the mirages look like water. Also, I like wearing as many colors at once as I can sometimes. It makes me happy!

Teach, Learn, Share

In Tucson, the green arrows come AFTER the yellow light. Not before. Also, Arizona has no time change. And, older accordions are generally more easy and more fun to fix than newer ones.
