CURRENT MISSION: See the world and get into a PhD program.

CRAZY THING I'VE DONE: I've been deported from Mexico.

ABOUT ME
-I am the sixth of eight kids.
-I ended up dating the first person I couchsurfed with (4.5 years)...
-I have traveled to 18+ states in Mexico... only almost went to jail in one.
-a picture says a 1,000 words, so creep my instagram if you want: https://instagram.com/isaacfish/

When I heard about couchsurfing, I checked it out and I am now a big supporter and I am excited to spread the love via couchsufing! :)

PHILOSOPHY: I believe that we are all here for a purpose.... It just takes some people a while to find that purpose!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am very open minded and try to encourage cultural exchange through raising awareness about CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couch surfing experience couldn't have been better... We ended up dating for 4.5 years. hahaha.

I'm continually amazed with the concept of couch surfing. Hostels are great, but they can't compare to really meeting a local!

Interests

Linguistics and phonetic variation, identity portrayal, cultural exchange, travel, Mexico, Latin America, and learning of a different point of view (which is why I prefer Couchsurfing over staying in a hotel).
