CURRENT MISSION

You're born boring. It's my mission to not die that way.

ABOUT ME

I'm all about laughing, story time, elephant jokes, climbing things, inventing things, trying to be vegan, hearing people speak in languages which I don't understand.

I'm studying international civil engineering at the university of wyoming.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in living, life, not wasting moments. When I'm scared to do something, I always ask myself "tomorrow, will you say 'you should have done that'?" And the answer is always yes, I will wish I had done it, and so everything should be done.
I believe "to each, their own." It's not my place to judge, it's my place to love. People that look the craziest are often the most interesting. I don't want to be 'normal.' When I'm an old lady I want to tell crazy stories from when I was young.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My couch isn't that comfy, but I make great breakfast!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only surfed once, and it was a GREAT experience!

Interests

I spend time with my friends, make new friends, go outside when the sun is shiny, read, laugh, garden, cook, play sports, have stupid humor, embarrass the people I'm around by making chicken noises, study too seriously, find new music, party, eat a lot of chocolate, try anything once.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll watch almost any movie, especially if it makes me laugh, and not only in the crude, sexual way. I love music, all kinds, really. I like melancholy - think Elliot Smith but also more grungy rock stuff. For example, I am of the opinion that Snow Patrol is still cool, even though it maybe never was. I love to read, especially short fiction and witty essays.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's super cliche, but the Great Wall was probably the best thing I've seen. It was incredibly humbling to stand on it. I can't imagine how much work and sweat went into that, and it was amazing to stand upon something so old and grand, and myself feel so small.

Teach, Learn, Share

Like I said, I'm pretty good at making breakfast. I'm can also teach you how to be a professional procrastinator.

I'm interested in learning how to skinny dip--do you know how to do that?
