CURRENT MISSION

To Enjoy My Environment Enthusiastically and Make It Even Better!

ABOUT ME

I am a graduate student in School Psychology at UT Austin. I love to be outside and to appreciate the beautiful neighborhood in which I live.

PHILOSOPHY

I am still developing this. But I would like to live in a way that I am proud of, that makes the world more beautiful, creative, and enjoyable to inhabit. I want to appreciate the time I spend with the people around me, and to have those people find something gratifying in the time they spend with me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to host people! And eventually, I would like to travel around couchsurfing myself.

Interests

I enjoy running, karaoke, dancing exuberantly, reading novels and informative, well-researched non-fiction, writing fiction and creative non-fiction, and having pleasant/informative/intellectual conversations with new people.
