CURRENT MISSION

Thoughts become things...choose the good ones.

ABOUT ME

I can only seem to plan my life in 6-12 month increments, but it has always worked out for me so I don't intend to change. I love LOVE, and not necessarily the romantic kind. My friends and family mean the world to me. I take a lot of pictures....wherever i go, whatever I'm doing, my camera will be there to document. Though I often come across as very "normal" to most people, deep down I thrive on the non-conventional. The more random, the weirder, the better. Music is air, it keeps me alive. I am an extremely open-minded, non-judgmental person. If I've ever made you a mixed CD, or a drink, it means I think very highly of you. I'm going on year 15 as a strict vegetarian and sometimes I like to think that I started the trend :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm eager to experience firsthand this CouchSurfing business I've been hearing so much about. However, before I welcome any strangers into my home, I must run it by my roommate first. I think that's the polite thing to do? I also need to get a travel buddy who can accompany me on future couching adventures, as I can be a bit of a worry-wort sometimes.
