About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life before getting my Doctorate.

ABOUT ME

I am enjoying my time before I commit to grad school. I want to go into the lucrative field of Library Science. Basically I am traveling, working, and trying to avoid joining corporate america.

PHILOSOPHY

Let the other people cast the stones, I have myself to look out for and please.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well I host and surf. I like to do both but I also like to meet up for dinner and a coffee.

Oh I suppose that I also participate by spreading the word and telling people that its not crazy to let people stay in your house or to stay in other people's homes. It's a great way to meet people and to get to see how people really live around the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been courchsurfing for about a year now, I was the surfer and now I am the hoster....I have to say its one of my favorite ways to travel and to meet people.

Interests

I enjoy reading, museums, libraries, concerts. Relaxing in a park, one of my favorite ways to spend the day.

  • coffee
  • reading
  • traveling

Teach, Learn, Share

I think that the most important thing I learned in my travels, is that street shrimp should not be eaten...even if everyone else is and it looks too good to be evil...Street Shrimp is EVIL.
