ABOUT ME
I drift towards unconventionality in most aspects of my life, mostly out of curiosity. I am an introvert but love finding new people. I refer to this as "adopting". DC is such a strange place, no one is ever from here, and most people don't stay for long, so I always excited to add a new member to the family.
I am hard working, mercurial, curious, adventurous, opinionated and passionate.
I work as a bartender, which I love.
I am studying Sign Language and live near the oldest Deaf University in the world. I am lucky to be so close to the Deaf community.
Also I look angry all the time but I'm just thinking. It's just my face:)
I love giving out opinions and tips, if you have any questions about ANYTHING please ask.
PHILOSOPHY
Like the Jellyfish, I want to go with the current. And then eat myself in a vinegar salad :)
I try to live a life that is as open and honest as possible.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am trying to travel more myself, but I would like to open my house up soon to travelers. As soon as I can get a cozy space together.

Teach, Learn, Share
Being yourself is the best thing you can possibly do for yourself and others, and incredibly hard.
Favorite Quotes:
