ABOUT ME
I'm a free-spirited soul constantly seeking to quench my curiosity about the universe. I crave excitement and adventure! I've spent much time traveling (been to 6 continents) and try to travel locally when I can. I'm often overwhelmed by the amount of things I want to do/learn and the little amount of time I have to do them.
I'm as soft-hearted as one can get and there is virutally nothing that can upset me. I'm pretty offbeat and spontaneous, or at least try to be. I enjoy thought-provoking conversations and can go at them for hours. I'm super active and find it hard to stay in one place for an extended amount of time. I don't have one particular sport/activity I proscribe to. I will acclimate to whatever is auspicious in my environment. Generally I love biking, hiking, gymnastics, playing in the park, yoga, barefoot running...
I love meeting new people (obviously. I wouldn't be on this site otherwise!) I moved here to Dallas only a few months ago. I am now beginning to feel comfortable and settled. I wouldn't say this city is my jam but I will say it's not boring.
PHILOSOPHY
Treat everyone like you like to be treated.
Whether you believe you can or you can't, you're right.
Be weird. No great people were ever "normal." If they were, they wouldn't be great.
So many more!!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I love hosting people. Hosting has been the only opportunity I've had but I'm hoping in the near future I can surf around and meet other members of the CSF community!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm new to this whole experience, albeit very excited to get started and become acquainted.
Interests
My interests/talents/abilities are include (but are not limited to): Knowing useless information. Dancing. Absolutely annihilating my fears. Listening. Learning. Driving. Philosophical and convoluted conversations. Handstanding. Writing. Running barefoot. Being honest with myself. Cooking. Knowing more useless information. Climbing trees. Exploring. Beatboxing. Spinning chairs. Understanding people. Losing things. Spelling. Playing with kids. Making Salads. Playing guitar. Yoga. Playing hockey. Traveling. Writing profiles (let me know if you want me to write one for you)
Music, Movies, and Books
I love informative/non-fiction books. There are many books that have changed my life, too many to list here...
I don't own a TV so the only shows I watch are the Nat Geo's and discovery channel shows I get online (and south park of course).
Like the rest of the world, I too enjoy movies. I enjoy the ones that make me laugh, cry, think and feel.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I did a round-the-world trip by myself when I was 21. Half of the distance I did without wearing pants, simply for the sake of not wearing pants.
I went 5 days without eating because I was curious to see how I would feel.
I once did not talk for 10 days also. That was interesting.
Watching the sun rise on a tiny island in Fiji in the middle of the Pacific was perhaps one of the most awe-inspiring moments of my life :)
Teach, Learn, Share
I like teaching, learning, and sharing, but I don't know exactly what the hell I'm supposed to write here, sorry.
