CURRENT MISSION

Learnin' and lovin'

ABOUT ME

I like to laugh! I enjoy meeting new people and learning about people's interests and passions.

I try to be thankful for every day that I have. It's easy to idolize times that aren't repetitive or "work" but I try to remember to be grateful for the gift of that day and find some way to love and make even a small part of it beautiful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I lived in TN my roommates and I hosted several people and had all positive experiences. I have surfed twice now and have had very positive experiences both times and look forward to participating in CS more!

Interests

I spend my free time hanging out with friends, reading, eating meals with friends and family, playing guitar, surfing the web, laughing, traveling when I can, gardening, and learning to love God and others more!

Music, Movies, and Books

Fue también José Arcadio Buendía quien decidió por esos años que en las calles del pueblo se sembraran almendros en vez de acacias, y quien descubrió sin revelarlos nunca los métodos para hacerlos eternos. Muchos años después, cuando Macondo fue un campamento de casas de madera y techos de zinc, todavía perduraban en las calles más antiguas los almendros rotos y polvorientos, aunque nadie sabía entonces quién los había sembrado.
-One Hundred Years of Solitude, Gabriel Garcia Marquez

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Traveled to Quetico, Canada for an 8-day wilderness canoe and portage trip. Favorite travel experience, hands down. Saw some beautiful sunsets over the lakes there.
2. Spending any afternoon in Calhoun, TN cliff-jumping in the Ocoee River with friends.
3. Talking the morning away with an 11-year old orphan boy named Yan Carlos in a state-run institution in San Pedro Sula, Honduras. He forever left an impression on me.
