关于我

CURRENT MISSION

To make you smile - really smile.

ABOUT ME

I. Love. Traveling. Always have. I'm fairly quiet (I have a few close friends) and more a café person than a pub person, but I'm friendly, and I'm pretty much always up for an adventure (including skydiving). I love meeting new people from all over the world. Heaven is either a good book, some hot chocolate, and a big overstuffed chair, or a walk through incredible scenery while having a deep conversation with a good friend.

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness comes from helping other people - I try to keep my mind on serving others in any way I can.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still pretty new to couch surfing, but I hope to host people who want to visit Boston - feel free to send a message!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch surfed for a few days in Bergen, Norway in October 2009 and had a fantastic time. Would like to host Boston visitors.

兴趣

Reading, writing, choral music, traveling, museums, meeting new people, having awesome experiences, seeing beautiful places, learning random things in other languages (I can say "I can't carry that on my head" in Shona and "He says that's my sheep, but that is not my sheep" in Icelandic, for example).
