CURRENT MISSION

To find passion in life, the extraordinary in the ordinary, and a purpose

ABOUT ME

I love learning. Anything that brings a different view of the world is worthwhile. I love books, music, and art. I suck at music and art but im currently working on the music part. I love learning about different cultures and I deeply respect all religions as each has a beauty worth witnessing. I feel like i lack passion in my life and i am setting out to find it. Hopefully this takes me many places and once I find it i will never let it go. I desire to surround myself with crazy, fun, unordinary and happy people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This network is amazing. I am in the process of moving but I will have an open couch within a couple of weeks.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed on my friends couch in Utah for a month about 2 years ago. While i was staying there I had no car and a 2 hour bus commute to work. After the month was over i flew back to school in Seattle but not before contracting pneumonia. I was bed ridden for about another month after that. It was a wonderful experience nonetheless.
