CURRENT MISSION

See my friends, and then get OUT of Virginia!

ABOUT ME

Right now I'm an undergraduate studying Leadership and how to make the world an even better place.

I grew up in a small town in North Carolina, USA, and then Richmond, Virginia, USA with my parents and four brothers. I also have almost 30 cousins. I guess that's one reason I like the idea of couchsurfers - I'm used to having a busy, full, fun house!

I consider myself to be pretty dorky. My idea of a perfect night is sitting around with a good cup of coffee or glass of wine and just talking or reading. (http://xkcd.com/238/). My idea of a perfect day involves being outside in gorgeous weather. My idea of heaven is a bookstore with a park and garden attached.

"I am the poet of the Body and I am the poet of the Soul,
The pleasures of heaven are with me and the pains of hell are with me,
The first I graft and increase upon myself, the latter I translate
into new tongue."

PHILOSOPHY

I'm on this earth to learn and experience.

"Here's a test to find out if your mission on earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't."
