I wasn't your average child... I loved getting lost. Purposefully lost wherever I could, whether in the grocery store or my own back yard. In one memory in particular, I was probably 10 or 11 years old, I remember visiting my grandmothers house in Euclid, Ohio. I had just got a new pair of roller blades so I decided to go out for a stroll. I rollerbladed for hours down new roads, trying my best to lose my sense of direction. Once I was really lost, I thought, I'd try and find my way back. Well, my other set of grandparents lived in the town over, Wickliffe, maybe a couple of miles away. In my attempt to get lost I ended up finding their house. I knocked on their door and they invited me in for snacks. An excellent ending to a day of exploring.

I still live my life pretty similarly to this. I seem to learn the most this way, and have the best experiences. I try to be open to new experiences and stay happy when plans fall through and things don't go as expected. If you're able to see the silver lining, what could have been a disaster can turn into one of those memories you keep with you forever.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

On a budget, would like a local to show me around. I live in a state of constant awe.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I recently read The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. It was beautiful, dark, spiraling chaos. I loved how the whole book read like poetry. It inspired me to get back into writing, and I ended up writing a short story the day after I put the book down.

I don't watch too many movies, so I can't really say I have a favorite. I do watch Game of Thrones, but, who doesn't?
