I laugh a lot. I am lucky enough to have a European mother so I grew up traveling. I've done a lot of volunteering abroad but I have many more places to see. I love going places really far away but a good road trip is just as nice. I have been lucky to visit old friends and make new ones all over this small world. I love getting to know different people and cultures and more than anything, I love to laugh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have couchsurfed a few times and have made some lifelong friends.

Interests

I love stories. Right now I am passionate about journalism and visual story telling. I love animals, especially horses and dogs. I used to play horse polo. I love to dance and snow ski. I know that I still have a lot to learn - and seeing as how I learn through experience, I've got a lot ahead of me.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: The Sting, Braveheart, Boondock Saints, The Shawshank Redemption, Requiem for a Dream, Twelve Angry Men, to name a few.

I always have music playing but it changes constantly with my mood.

Books: C.S. Lewis and G.K. Chesterton are my favorite authors.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked in an orphanage in Honduras. I learned to surf in Costa Rica. I did physical therapy with orphans and played soccer with school children in Nicaragua. I shared tea with Palestinian shop owners in Israel. I met my best friend in Toronto. I traveled throughout France. I photographed Gaudi in Barcelona. I ate lunch with a Jordani boy and his donkey in Petra. I watched the Eurocup from a Bar in Marbella. I played with monkeys in Gibralter and I bought a drum in Morocco. I have enjoyed it all but I have so much more to do.

Teach, Learn, Share

It's hard to meet a person I don't like. Simply put, I just like people.
