ABOUT ME

Music can move my soul. TV WILL hypnotize me. And I can lose myself in a book. But People, in the end, are what truly inspire me. Traveling can fill a photo album with splendid landscapes and landmarks, but people and their stories splash these images with color. They breathe life into the city. They are the heart of a country, or a culture. I enjoy traveling, but what I truly love is learning about these lives, that have moved parallel to my own, and say more about the world they were raised in then their history books could ever illustrate. Because at any given moment in time, we are all what we've ever been.

PHILOSOPHY

"One must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind him to the fact that each moment of life is a miracle-- and a mystery."

"Always remember that what lies behind you and what lies infront of you is nothing compared to what lies within you."

"It's not always rainbow and butterflies,
It's compromise that moves us along."

"Life isn't about finding yourself,
It's about creating yourself."

"Don't make someone a priority in your life,
When you are only an option in theirs."

"Live to regret the things you did,
Never what you were too afraid to do."

"Aspire to Inspire before you Expire!"

A life’s worth, in the end, isn’t measured in hours, or dollars. It’s measured by the amount of love exchanged along the way.♥

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ushuaia, Argentina; Montevideo, Uruguay

In Ushuaia I had what could easily be described as the most amazing host on the site (but I'm willing to try to debunk! lol) He was very generous, open, and eager to share his city with us. I couldn't ask for a better experience, money could not buy those days he put up with my and my 3 crazy friends at the "End of the World" during Spring Break.

Teach, Learn, Share
