CURRENT MISSION

Live life and love it.

ABOUT ME

I love life and I love to live it. The more the merrier. You can find me writing, running, reading, stretching randomly, taking pictures and posing questions on any given day. I love the outdoors and fitness, and love to combine fitness and travel all the time, every time, and anywhere.

PHILOSOPHY

Regrets are for people who live continuously in the past. Each experience, good or bad, is an opportunity for growth. But never pass the buck of blame. Accept it, ask forgiveness, and enrich lives. Take a few steps out of your comfort zone, and you'll see just how special and undeniably human you are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've been a co-host and a traveler, but I'm looking to really dig in deep and get the full experience. Hosting is just as important as traveling, and I appreciate everyone who opens their homes to every CS vagabond :) I promise to return the favor!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My mom started out hosting people, then when I was old enough, I started on my own! So far I've only been to Jamaica on my own, but we've been all over Europe as a family.

Music, Movies, and Books

There are few books I don't enjoy, but movies are a different story. I prefer dramas and high-quality stuff. I cannot tolerate in any way, shape or form cheap comedy made at the expense of reinforcing societal stereotypes (race, gender, sex. pref., etc.)
Anything that ties you closer to your humanity is always good. No preference on music. It's all great as long as the message is moral.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumped out of an airplane.

Teach, Learn, Share

Even a government made 'for the people by the people' doesn't always do what the people want.
I have 25 pens sitting in front of me right now, and I have used 3 in the past year. Excess? Absolutely, but I will never run out of ink!
If you wait to write it down, the moment of inspiration is lost, genius gone forever. Can you waste genius?
