I'm mellow, and easy to get along with. I'll talk to almost anyone and try to never limit myself or other people.

PHILOSOPHY

Honesty is the best policy- kindness, along with open mindedness and appreciation of the blessings life has given you are the most important traits to have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've not yet couch surfed, but think the whole concept is great and will participate in the future as needed.

Interests

Reading, hiking, the ocean in general and just being outside. I'd say I'm more into new experiences than I am travel, but it's hard to experience new things staying in one place.

• singing
• meditation
• reading
• traveling
• hiking
• rock climbing

Music, Movies, and Books

Will literally read anything, as long as it's not geared toward teenage girls or lonely housewives- I'm always reading something.

As far as music goes, I'm a bit of a snob. If you like anything that's on the radio I will make fun of you.. I'm into anything from the Black Keys to Amy Winehouse.. anything with a bit of soul.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everything I saw and did while living in New Zealand blew my mind, and everything in Australia has as well- Maybe hiking/climbing Mt. Tongariro in New Zealand, I'm amazed by all the moments of stillness in completely untouched nature I've been able to witness.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make a mean latte, clean your house, make you a proper dinner, help you practice meditation, sing you Etta James, or discuss egocentric behavior, any sort of controversial topic, the meaning of life (or lack there of?) or I can just have a light hearted, great time! I'm not sure what I have to share otherwise, but I've sure learned a lot.
