ABOUT ME

Laid back and low maintenance. I value creativity and being an individual separate from the group. I like people and believe everyone has something to bring to the table and the conversation. I'm the type of person that likes to sit at the corner table of a restaurant where I can see the whole picture versus plopped in the middle of the dining room. If I have time, I always prefer the scenic route. I like working with my hands and have never felt comfortable in a classroom/office setting. I'm definitely opinionated but I consciously work at being more open minded and allow for change in perspective. If you get me started talking politics, I won't stop. My fear at the moment if of authority commanding people to achieve their own agenda.

PHILOSOPHY

I try not to live according to by blanket ideologies; I just try to be a good person.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed more than I have hosted because it took me a long time to settle. However, I think I'm an enjoyable and helpful guest. My mother always told me to leave the place I've stayed in better shape than when I arrived. I stay true to that. And in my defense of having hosted so little, as soon as I have the appropriate environs to host, I will do so with all my heart.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had some the best times of my life couchsurfing around Europe. Just about every couchsurfer I've met is a desirable person.
