About Me
My daily bucket list includes:
Take a moment to admire the beauty in something or someone.
Do at least one thing that scares you today.
Be grateful.
Change the world...or at least your little section of it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet new people! I think the best part about traveling is connecting with others. On my best trips I feel like I've met at least one life long friend.

Music, Movies, and Books
Favorite books - Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson, Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracey Kidder, The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Favorite movie - I don't have an all time favorite but I could watch Bridesmaids, Fruitvale Station, Coming to America (a classic) and Dallas Buyer's Club twice in a row so I think they are on the list.
Shows - I don't have a TV or Netflix or Hulu (I'm not Amish, just busy)
Food - ice cream
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
It's so hard to choose just one 🤔😆😜...let's see...I started a community garden in my neighborhood.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love living like an explorer everyday...even when I'm at home in Philly. My quest for beauty drives me to discovery. I have tons to share about places that are off the beaten path in Philly.
