About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I enjoy anything great. I study economics and spanish when I am at school and indulge in adventures and music on my personal time. I am a foodie and will try anything at least once and most things 2 or 3 times. I love finding out new ways to cook foods I know, traditional ways to cook foods I don't know and experimenting with everything in between the two. I also enjoy tea to a close obsessive state and since i am a Seattle native, coffee isn't just a beverage you drink, its a way of life. I love exploring. whether taking to the streets in my own city and finding every odd coffee shop, food spot, odd trinket shop there is or setting foot in a new town and exploring street by street. There is never a bad moment for music and all is welcome in my abode.

También, estoy estudiando Español y quiero hablar y practicar cuando sea posible. Todovia tengo problemas con las diferencias entre las maneras de hablar de todos los países hispanos y espero que entienda todos formas y las palabras y expresiones de todos los países. He visitado a México y Costa Rica pero quiero ir a todo hispanoamérica y España y ojalá que (un día) vaya a Cuba. Me encanta el idioma y tengo que hablar más para que domine la lengua en el futuro.

PHILOSOPHY

Everybody and everything can teach you something, so let them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am really excited to start sharing my couches and can't wait for people to come to seattle and see how amazing of a city it is!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have hosted some really cool people and I am excited to continue having people come to Seattle.

Interests

music anything from Duke Ellington to KRS-one to Ghostland Observatory to the Dead Kennedys. If it is good I will like it.

I love adventuring of all sorts, whether it be on foot, bike, skateboard, car, boat, in a forest, or in a city. Anything can be made into an adventure and that is what makes adventuring so rad!

I am constantly looking to learn something new so everything is interesting to me.
