Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To explore of much as possible. Recently moved to Shanghai to coach beginner level gymnastics to kids.
ABOUT ME
I think I'm addicted to passion. I have passion for pretty much my entire life. I love the sport of gymnastics, and tumbling around. I love to just wander and look at things.. Everyday that I write my address I wish that I could put "I don't have one this year." I want to meet and see everything and everyone. I'm extremely laid back, and can't remember the last time I work a pair of jeans.
Life is meant to be loved and appreciated. "A life worth living is worth recording." (I read that in the Secret)
PHILOSOPHY
"I want to be like the butterflies. The butterflies are free" - Charles Dickens
I live my life because it's the only one I have. I live my life with respect for myself and those around me. Life without passion, would be boring.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm still new in Shanghai, so I'd love to experience some new places with travelers. I do have a couch, and a cat. So you'd have to be comfortable with both.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've met one or two people not through this website that were traveling and gave them places to stay. I've moved around a bit, and have stayed on peoples couches.

THE SECRET
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've traveled my own country pretty extensively. I love a good road trip or hopping on a train/bus to no where.
I've trained along side some amazing gymnastics coaches.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm not sure that I know specifically what I could teach someone, but it's life all about the butterfly effect? Every single person and thing you do impacts the rest of your life. So, let me be someone that impacts your life.
I teach mainly kids under 5 the sport of gymnastics. I absolutely love working with young kids.
