About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to live every moment in life to the fullest and work to create a world that will support, and be a part of, people doing the same thing

ABOUT ME

I guess the best way to describe me is funny, spontaneous, and smart. Mixed in with a little charm and a pure love of life. I'm a very social person and enjoy making people laugh and engaging people in conversations. Anything else just ask.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is putting the group before the individual and living everyday to the FULLEST.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a newbie!

Interests

I spend a good amount of time reading. The genres vary depending on my mood but at any time I could be reading sci/fi fantasy or historical/political novels. I also enjoy doing things outdoors such as bike riding, swimming, hiking, etc. Also, I like to roam around different areas of town whether I'm in Miami, or traveling, and find things to do.

Music, Movies, and Books

Stieg Larson trilogy (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, et al)

Any Ellen DeGeneres Book

I love all types of music... literally. So my music playlists are quite diverse.

And I appreciate and enjoy watching movies from all genres. I'm currently going through an independent film supporting stage.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. I watched sunrise break just over a mountain range in Port Antonio, Jamaica. One of the most beautiful moments I've had.

2. Standing on a cliff of the Grand Canyon and looking out across the canyon and truly admiring mother nature's beautiful creation.
