CURRENT MISSION

live, learn, love, let live, accept, never say never, make the world better, have good days

ABOUT ME

wow, where to begin. I grew up traveling. My brother is my travel companion for better or for worse and I love meeting new people. I am a liberal person with liberal and open views. I have so much I want to learn and see...it is crazy! I love dogs and miss my terrier so much! I lived in Spain for five months and then DC in the spring of 2008 and just spent the summer in Europe travelong all over and living in Barcelona for a while. I graduated from the University of San Francisco in International Studies with a focus in Latin America and am now living in Mexico for my graduate school field work in Sustainable International Development. I work to address poverty through education and youth programs in Latin America.

PHILOSOPHY

go with the flow and take life as it comes at you and try to accept everything. I am an internal optimist and an idealist at heart.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing is amazing and I think everyone has to try it to learn to adapt and get to know people.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I saw Angkor Watt in Cambodia in May 2007 and was under the Eiffel tower with one of my best friends. I was also in one of the oldest bars in the US, in Boston where I live now.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I want to learn about how other people live in other countries whether it is good or bad, happy or sad. I have a lot to offer as far as what I have seen and the places I have been to. I would love to work for a non profit organization.
