About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Take complete advantage of the opportunity study abroad has granted me. Basically learn through experience and encounters, while seeing as much as I can.

ABOUT ME

I love to see, do, and learn new things. Traveling is definitely the best and most fun way to do exactly that. I really enjoy eating great food, and trying new things, especially if I have great company. Overall I am a really chill person who just wants to see the world and meet some stellar people while I do that.

PHILOSOPHY

Eat every sandwich like its the best one you've ever eaten.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My plan is to couchsurf as much as I can while I am studying abroad. Then offer my couch to wayward travelers coming stateside once I get home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to couchsurfing, but have it on good authority (my sister) that it is absolutely amazing. Forming connections with people while traveling the world is a beautiful concept and I cannot wait to participate in it.

Interests

I'll try to keep this short and sweet.
My one true love is candy. I love it more then the desert loves sand, but not all types of candy. I do not like chocolate, more accurately put I loathe it entirely. Except for chocolate cake, chocolate cake is delicious.

Right behind candy is Ultimate Frisbee. Also known as the sport which has taken over my life (I don't go anywhere without a disc). Seriously if you haven't played give it a try. Its fun, challenging, and the Ultimate community is filled with some of the most amazing people ever to walk this Earth.

If I'm not playing Ultimate, then chances are I'm either watching movies, reading books or refreshing my knowledge of dinosaurs. All while eating candy of course.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't have anything here now cause I can't think of one thing, but one day I won't have anything here because I won't be able to choose.

Teach, Learn, Share

Like I said before I always have a disc with me, and would be delighted to teach anyone how to throw a frisbee.
