Hi, I'm Hope! I've been lucky enough to have such a great name that helps me get through a life filled with high hopes, great people and a love to travel and meet new and exciting people. I believe that being kind is the secret to life. I have way too many siblings, my dream is to live in a motor home and write a book about something interesting someday soon. I've been traveling around Europe for 3 months and have spent the past 2 years working in a few super cool hostels and making lifelong friends from all over the world. I take life day by day..."the road to paradise is paradise". I know my life will consist of helping others in some way and also love the ocean, reading, laughing and watching movies that me me laugh, not scary movies! (ok, maybe during the day time)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm very new to this site and I decided to give this a try to meet cool new people while offering something in return, such as friendship, maybe a good sandwich and stories. I have a huge family and can offer places to stay in the US to whomever I come across...I really have heard amazing things about fun and generous people form all walks of life through couch surfing... I want in on this action!!

音乐、电影和书籍

I'm currently reading a lot of books written by Maya Angelou...I love reading articles on people's lives, current events, innovative ways to help others. I actually really like Moby Dick, a book called 'Zen 24/7' and New York Magazine. Movies are close to my heart...i will watch any movie, but love comedies!! The wedding singer, Hook, Back to the Future, Goonies, Jurassic Park, Step brothers...also serious movies such as Pulp fiction, fear & loathing in Las Vegas...space Jam? I love movies. For music...I enjoy alternative rock, reggae, rap...seriously anything indie...arctic monkeys, Florence & the Machine, Foster the People, Cage the Elephant.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sky Diving! It was amazing yet the easiest thing I've ever done!

教，学，和分享

I enjoy working with children, helping those who may not have it so easy in this game of life. I've recently learned to garden in a large volume which has been amazing! I can save you if you're drowning.. (seriously, i worked as a lifeguard for years)...I can scoop a mean ice cream cone. Did you know that mermaids exist? Hmm let me know if you'd like to learn more.

I'm taking a break from the work life trying to pay back my expensive american education. I hope to spend 2 years starting next year working in Africa to help those affected by HIV/AIDS! Life is for the living!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can offer HOPE! haha sorry, people joke about my name all the time. I can offer kindness, an open mind, definitely provide beer & snacks...try and make tacos?
On a serious note...I love traveling, love sharing stories and always enjoy gaining a new perspective on the world and the people who make it real. If you happen to consider my request, I will arrive with a smile, a case of guinness and a willingness to share, teach and learn. I'm clean, considerate and a great sleeper!! No snoring! I'll even offer to clean your bathroom...I worked in hostels for 4 months over the past 2 years...trust me, I've seen some crazy stuff so your toilet is probably a dream!
