About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live in the moment enjoying everyone I meet, everywhere I go hitting as many countries as possible. I'm laughing and loving it.

ABOUT ME

I've learned how unexpected life can be so now I simply enjoy living it. This will be my first time really traveling, learning, experiencing different cultures and making friends around the world. I can't wait!! I'm up for almost anything.

PHILOSOPHY

Every moment counts. Respect and care for others. Show kindness, no cruelty. Love passionately, dance with exhuberance...live. Yes, that means being silly.

I am loving life regardless of the pettiness or drama that might occur. I want others to feel that contentment and happiness even for a little while too. Everyone can be a potential learning experience, embrace it! My favorite saying is one I made up. It's silly but how I feel...ready? "I enjoy the moment... the moment is now... I'm enjoying this moment........... :p"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've just started but love the concept! I'll welcome CS's to central tx with a hug. I can meet for drinks, dinner, hiking...taking off on the weekend to visit other cities. I can meet anyone who comes to Austin or the surrounding areas. I'm always looking for new things to do and Tx is insane with activity. Happy hours are awesome, live music incredible...pretty much anything can be fun so lets go!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Oddly enough I've met a lot of people online through chats etc but haven't had the chance to travel often. I'm going to Italy in May and hope to begin my CS experience then. Although I would love to get a start locally in my state though. :)
