CURRENT MISSION I want to see the world, learn new languages, and explore other cultures. ABOUT ME I'm not overly coherent when I try to describe myself (as I'm not very good at it), but here goes... I'm a Texan that wants to explore the world. My obsession is language. My current goal is to become less socially awkward and make new friends. PHILOSOPHY Hmmm...

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Find the meetup/event and go for it. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Finally surfed for the first time (in Austin), and it was awesome! Great host, great new friends, and had a blast exploring. I've also had a ton of fun meeting new people at different events in Houston. So many stories to hear and tell, and I learn something every time.
Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Comedy, mystery, action, foreign Music: Just about everything Books: Far too many to list. Mostly fiction, dictionaries. My absolute favorite author, however, is Tamora Pierce.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Survived my first year of teaching.
Teach, Learn, Share
I taught someone a little Arabic, but mostly I enjoy learning from others, hearing about their journeys and experiences.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Anecdotes, and the desire to just go outside without a plan and walk around until we find something awesome.
My Interests
Languages, reading, drawing, world music, religion, culture, history, outdoors.
