Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I want to learn from all. My passion for sustainability and green living will eventually develop into a professional career. In the mean time, I want to discover the world through travels and interaction. Ultimately I want to help others.
ABOUT ME
Very passionate individual that loves meeting new people from all different backgrounds and ideologies. I want to learn from everyone through their experiences and stories. I'm a very determined and motivated individual and an always down for new experiences and adventures. I live by the motto "Livin' the Dream," no matter what the circumstance. I want to develop a sustainable world for all people, and I know this can be achieved. How? By getting people like us to influence others out there. I truly believe in the power of an individual and how it can make huge strides in changing the world for a better. I refuse to accept anything but. I know that we can make this world better and I intend to do it. I am looking into Sustainable Business programs for my Master's for the following year (2011) somewhere in Europe and am always open to suggestions, ideas, differences, because I find it very thought-provoking. I love to talk about deep subjects, as I feel in America you are not able to do that, and that is one thing I greatly dislike about America.
PHILOSOPHY
Livin' the Dream.
Karma - Be good to all and good things will come to you.
Learn, Live, Love - I think this is the key to life
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I would like to eventually host anyone once I have a stable home place. In the mean time I want to meet others throughout the world. I am open to giving guiding tours if anyone is interested in it, and would be happy to try and help others find an available couch in my area.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Just started my CouchSurfing experience and have grown immensely in a short amount of time from learning from others. I want to meet more people that have a different view on the world and life as I believe it is necessary in order to better understand the world and everything that is associated with it.

Music, Movies, and Books
LOVE it all!!
Music: All, hip-hop, metal, jazz, classical, punk, reggae...
Movies: Fight Club, Requiem For a Dream, Rules of Attraction, Snatch, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Zoolander, Dumb & Dumber....
Books: 3 Weeks With My Brother, Frankenstein, Lord of the Rings, The European Dream. I love books, love to learn about new subjects, and I think this is best done through reading.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
So far, being able to study abroad in Europe has been one of the most amazing things I have ever done. I have not had the opportunity to travel before, and in my short time out in Europe thus far, I have learned more then I have in 24 years in America. I think it should be required of everyone to study amongst a different culture because it has been one of the most rewarding experiences ever. It makes me that much more excited for the future!!
Teach, Learn, Share
I have bar tended for the better part of the past 6 years as it has helped me get through college in the States, so I know how to make a few cocktails.
Passionate about good food and good drink.
Love to talk and question everything.
Love to talk about deep subjects with different people with different backgrounds and different ideas. I think this enriches both sides.
