CURRENT MISSION

To see the world one day at a time

ABOUT ME

I am a student who hopes to go to graduate school in the near future. I like talking with interesting people and learning about people's views on life. I am interested in politics, music, books, and talking about everyday things. I have been all over the United States (except the South). I studied abroad in Russia for 4 months and then I went to Ukraine and Moldova.

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't go mistaking Paradise for that home across the road." Mr. Bob DylanLife's a bitch; fuck it. If you are reading this without having met me please don't let this be what you judge me on. Meet me and ask me to elaborate on my personal philosophy of life, I would be glad to.Here is another personal philosophical statement of mine: we are all just pebbles of sand that are floating down the stream that we call life.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to use this to meet people, exchange stories, and live life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed while I was in Finland. It was a great experience! I had a ton of fun. We went rock climbing and walked around Helsinki.
While I was in Saint Petersburg I met a ton of people through CS. I went on tours of the city with them and just talked so they could improve their English and I could improve my Russian.
CS is a great tool to meet people.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I once drove from Kansas City to Newport Beach, California in 4 days. We stopped in Oklahoma, a state park in New Mexico, and the Grand Canyon.

Also, I once rode a mule to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Me ridding a mule to the bottom wasn't amazing but being at the bottom of the Grand Canyon was.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I would like to learn about the places that I travel. I could probably share with people a lot of information about Bob Dylan. I might be able to play you a song on guitar if 1) you have a guitar 2) you can stand a person who doesn't play guitar very well and 3) can put up with my horrible singing
