ABOUT ME

Love to travel, meet new people and engage in different experiences. I am an independent person, so I don't need a lot when I'm traveling, just the bare minimum!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't hold grudges. Don't take anyone at face value. Set high expectations for yourself and others, and don't waver in those.
Forget your mistakes; you've learned from them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch surfed for a bit in England when I wasn't able to meet up with some friends... Met up with some people for a night out and made some great friends. I couch surfed in Costa Rica for about a month, ended up traveling with a group of 4 others (whom I met through CS) around CR. I also hosted an emergency surfer in Baltimore and had a wonderful time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

to date, it would have been visiting el salvador... seeing a completely war-stricken nation (much of which was aided by U.S. political involvement) and yet, witnessing incredibly devotion and perseverance to one's nation, people, and culture... AND forgiveness and openness to U.S. assistance again.
