Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see the world and let it change the way that I see.
ABOUT ME
I was born & raised in the little east coast state of Maryland. I like to travel as often as possible. I can speak a good deal of Italian and some Spanish. I love foreign languages and to learn about other cultures - especially via food. I work as a bartender in Baltimore and truly enjoy meeting new people. I want to learn all about organic farming and eventually have my own little plot of paradise to grow upon. I'm hoping to pick up some useful information on my next adventure.
PHILOSOPHY
People who get offended take themselves too seriously.
"People of zee wurl - relax!"

I haven't been active in a while but I'd love to start hosting some people and showing them the charm that
Baltimore can offer :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've only been a guest once (officially) and have only hosted two people but I find it to be an excellent community full of people who love people!

I enjoy a whole lot of activities but the main ones would include: hiking and being outdoors - especially sleeping in a tent, music of all shapes and sizes most of all performed live, food food food and beer + wine, literature, yoga, languages and cultural studies, and I do adore some stimulating conversation.
