CURRENT MISSION

Add to the beauty.

ABOUT ME

People energize me. One of my favorite things is discovering a new friend. I want to go to every country in the world before I die. I play violin, piano, guitar (a little), mandolin (even less, but learning), sing, and I can randomly remember songs that I haven't heard since I was three years old. My faith in God defines who I am, and makes life worth living. I have a weakness coffee and tea. I love my job, but I want to go far away.

PHILOSOPHY

"there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live"

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Most of my couch surfing has been un-official. Living in Chicago for several years my housemates and I had a constant flow of strangers and friends sleeping on our couches. My sister and I had the privilege of experiencing the fantastic hospitality of the CS community in Europe during a 2-month adventure. Now that we have our own place we having a blast sharing some of the couch surfing love.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My sister and I surfed in London, Dublin, Paris, Malta and Sicily. We met wonderful people and made great memories! Our lives were enriched.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

We love cooking, and if you have us in your home we would gladly contribute to a meal, or bake you some yummy sweets.

Our parents are artists, so art runs in our blood, whether it comes out in a song, a painting, or a photograph. We want to share what we know and learn more from you! We like to share music, and we want to learn music of different cultures as well. Let's make art together!
