CURRENT MISSION

Be as open minded as possible.

ABOUT ME

If I could describe myself, I would say that I'm a beauty seeker. I love new experiences, and I've made it my goal to take every opportunity the opens up. I enjoy spontaneity and I'm pretty laid back. I used to be a piano major and have a passion for all things music related- I also play the uke, penny whistle (thanks to a couch surfer friend) and harmonica... and I am loving it. I love traveling and being completely immersed in the culture and geography of a place. If you want to know more about me, you'll just have to surf my couch or host me :)

PHILOSOPHY

Be honest, kind, and open to things.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Traveling and hosting couch surfers are both amazing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I can't endorse couchsurfing enough. I have been so lucky to meet amazing people who are connected to their communities and their environment. So far I have only been to Portland and Denver, but I anticipate there is more to come. Besides hosting/surfing, I love going to the couch surfing meets and events when I can.

Музыка, кино и книги

When it comes to music, I enjoy a wide variety. My faves at the moment are Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Kalai, Jason Mraz, Simon and Garfunkel, Dream Theater, Iron and Wine, Rachmaninoff, and the Swell Season. I also hosted a couple who were in a band that I really enjoyed, There is no Mountain.

Sidenote... did you know that Anthony Hopkins is a composer? Mention it in your request for bonus points!

Movies- Amelie, Garden State, Inception, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Lord of the Rings (the extended versions, of course...) and Avatar.

As far as books go- man alive, how could I choose? I love reading anything and everything I can get my greedly little eyes on. Trying to get through Time's 100 Best Novels, but it's a slow and steady process.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I've been on a hot air balloon.

I Couch Surfed in Portland and got to walk around for a few days, taking in the city.

Danced to some african beats at the Boulder, Colorado outdoor mall with Amy.

I've been to Alaska to fish with my dad and a bunch of old men.

I've been swimming with dolphins.

I love live performances of any kind- I've been to all kinds of different concerts/operas/symphonies... I crave them!

Hanging out in Bangkok and seeing some of the most beautiful places on earth.

I had ICL surgery in February 2013, and I now have contacts implanted in my eye. I can now see 20/15!!

Life is amazing, everything that happens is amazing in some way.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

CS has taught me that it's okay to take a chance. It's also taught me that it's okay to be me, and to be real. I've met a lot of interesting people through couch surfing and cherish all of the friendships I have made.
