I'm fairly new to couchsurfing but have enjoyed each experience.

I'm in the process of learning how I most enjoy traveling.

I enjoy conversations that include a passion for the topic.

Things learned while traveling:
Listen before you speak
Control your expectations
Enjoy what you are doing

Things I learned while working:
You must challenge yourself everyday
Don't be the one making excuses
The cost of something is based on the time spent earning it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've stayed in hostels, hotels, and airbnbs... This seems to be the most genuine way to meet people. I prefer to contribute via cooking, cleaning, groceries, stories, transit, drinks and events.
