CURRENT MISSION

To laugh with people, to be in touch with my emotions, to be naked, and to smile and have fun !

ABOUT ME

SOOOO I am an extremely simple person.. This about me section is gonna be kind of like verbal diahrea so excuse me if I don't clean up ha;

anyway, I love to make noise and just let my energy out; I like to stand on top of a desert mountain, naked and scream for joy at the top of my voice. On the opposite pole of the weather totem pole, I like to run in blizzards and cheer and yelp while biking in the snow.

I like to express joy, sit quietly and think; winter is my favorite season: I love to walk through parks and hear the crunch of snow and look up at christmas lights.

In sum, I'm pretty open-minded, positive, and jolly: contact me if you want, so we can meet and share each others' stories and have fun!

PHILOSOPHY

Accept all feelings/emotions/thoughts and let yourself feel everything.. it all teaches a lesson in the end and it all is a part of life. Try it out :-D

Keep things simple;

Listen to your heart.

I am willing to host someone on a couch if they need it. I am a student so please contact me a little while before you need space, so I can make room and time to accomodate you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never couchsurfed before because this is my first time signing up on this website, but I'm excited to host if you need it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed to the top of a desert mountain in the middle of the middle east in the middle of the night in only sandals and shorts, and got naked at the top and screamed for joy with my two other best friends.

I've seen where two ocean currents meet and collide.

I sang With Arms Wide Open by Creed in a Karaoke Bar and took my shirt off with one of my best friends. Needless to say, we brought down the house, it rocked!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my energy-- I love to be outdoors. I know how to surf, meditate, play music and sports. I have some education (currently studying Psychology) and travel under my belt, so I can provide tips about both, and I like to think I'm pretty intuitive, so I can use these skills to help you with what you need :-D

I want to learn what it means to say, "Yes" and really focus on others' experiences!
I want to learn how to knit.
I want to find cheap ways to travel and save money.
*I want to meet people who are COMPLETELY different from me, and those that share my same interests.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've got a bed, a kitchen, a pretty cool backyard, and I'm willing to take you on a tour if I have the weekend free!

[I feel like this headline would be more aptly fitting if it said "What can we share together"]

You tell me what you need, and I'll see if I can share it :-D!
