About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find beauty where ever I may be... in the most unusual and unexpected places.. experience new people and bring joy to every situation.

ABOUT ME

I'm living in Berlin, currently. I am happiest when I am taking photos, eating good food, and having wonderful conversations. I love to explore and be spontaneous. I often get lost for fun.

PHILOSOPHY

It's better to enjoy than to complain.. life is made up of amazing moments.. the more there are that you can remember, the richer the experience.. often times when things go "wrong" it's for the right reasons.. I'm an optimist at heart and can often find happiness in the oddest situations.. makes a better story for my life's biography. ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm fairly new to CS.. currently haven't participated much.. but I love the ethos and the spirit of trust and community it brings to our traveling planet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only gone to some CS parties in Istanbul and met really lovely people. :) But I have many friends who swear by it and have told me great experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

movies: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, royal tenenbaums, amelie, (to name a few)
music: very broad taste in music from Outkast / Santigold / M.I.A. / John Legend / Coldplay / Adele / Brazilian music / Billie Holiday / Michael Jackson .. the list could go on and on..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left my life and my friends in Los Angeles and moved to Berlin on my own.. now I'm starting from scratch and loving every minute of it. Learning a new way of life in Europe.. and excited to visit surrounding European cities.

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess what I can teach depends on what you want to learn. I can make really good breakfast (which can be eaten anytime of day).. so I can make a good meal.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, positive energy and respect.
