About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Become fluent in Spanish

ABOUT ME

I'm a fun, laid back chick with a pretty sweet outlook on life. I love people and I feel like conversations are the best form of education. I want to learn.

I love playing in my house and hanging out with my cat and dog. I'm an avid DIYer and love to garden and spend time outdoors.

She's a good girl
Loves her momma
Loves horses
And America too

She's a good girl
Crazy bout Elvis
Loves Jesus
And her boyfriend too

PHILOSOPHY

Globetrotting destroys ethnocentricity

If you don't know where you're going, then any road will take you there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love hosting and love being hosted. I try to attend CS events and be as active as I can in the community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted quite a few people (see references) and hope to do more surfing myself in the future. So far my surfing experiences have been fantastic. I've made so many friends and can't wait to get more people on board for this amazing project.

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything and everything. I LOOOOOVE historical fiction, both movies and books. I love used book stores and I love leaving books I've read in random places.

I'll listen to absolutely anything with a beat, but I lean more towards Alternative and Soft Rock as well as Country. A couple of my favorites include:

DMB -- John Mayer -- David Gray -- Linkin Park -- Third Eye Blind -- Jack Johnson -- Ben Harper -- Tom Petty -- Elton John -- The Beatles -- RHCP -- Soundgarden -- Alice in Chains -- Eric Church -- Florida Georgia Line -- Clint Black --

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built a couch!

Teach, Learn, Share

Everyone in the world needs a bucket list. I recently sat down and wrote down my "100 things to do before you die" and it's extremely gratifying. Not only have I been so motivated the past couple days/weeks to get stuff done, but I can't sleep because I'm so excited to wake up the next day and plan how to cross off another item. Start big and work your way to the details.
