I am a very passionate person. I spend most of my free time serving those around me, increasing my spirituality, and making connections. I believe connections are invaluable. I value positive, genuine, and present living. I am very open-minded and eager to learn. I love culture and traditions. I love to try new things.

Some random things about me:
I am an artist. I love to sing. I couldn't live without music. I love to have late night deep intellectual conversations. I love to explore areas and meet new people. I love to cook, bake, give massages, and coach those around me. I have experienced life at its fullest and its worst so I have many stories. I write poetry. I believe in whole mind, body, and spirit healing.

NOTE: I'M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR ARTISTIC AND MUSICAL FRIENDS, MODELS TO PAINT OR PHOTOGRAPH, AND PEOPLE TO LEARN FROM/SHARE TRADES WITH.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I finally have a small place in the world to share with other artists, friends, and family. I want to make the world a better place through love, kindness, charity, and connection. I want to be a place where people can come to explore self love and discovery and learn about themselves.

I'm here to find and discover new people, new ideals, new cultures, new facets of knowledge and adventure. I'm here to meet fellow travelers and find a network of like-minded people who hunger for knowledge, spiritual growth, and emotional intelligence. I'm here to learn not only about others but myself.

Music, Movies, and Books

The few CDs in my car that I listen to nonstop consist of these groups though my music is far more diverse then these groups:

Lecrae. KB. Andey Mineo. NF. Flame. Sidewalk prophets. Tenth Avenue North. Kings for Country. Newsboys. Coldplay. Foo Fighters. Shinedown. Jacob Banks.

I like christian music, especially christian rap. I listen to adult alternative, folk, pop, country and now some R&B.

I like uplifting movies, movies inspired by true events, and action/sci-fi movies. I like to always be learning so I also watch criminal and profiling shows.

I dont read as much as I used to but I mainly read teen books since I want to be a writer. ;) Favorite series thus far would have to be the Lunar Chronicle series by Marissa Meyer and also Hunger Games (read that whole series in 48 hours--haha).

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach art, writing, and cooking. I love to entertain others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Life experiences. Art. Food. ;)
