CURRENT MISSION

find happiness beyond my bank account, be at peace with the world and myself.

ABOUT ME

i dance as much as i can to pretty much any music available, travel often, have an intense love of foreign cities and even more of foreign countrysides. i've met people from all over the world and have spent countless hours learning about their lives.

i spend as much time as i can outside, hiking, biking, swimming, slacklining, or just napping in the sun; i pretend that i know how to cook elaborate meals; laugh loud; and eat apples like they're goin; out of style.

and i can open a beer with my teeth.

PHILOSOPHY

Live with no shame, guilt, or fear. Accomplish whatever your heart desires. Happiness is not measured by your bank account, so go out into the world and begin to live, love, and laugh.

OUR BATTERED SUITCASES LAY ON THE SIDEWALK, WE HAD LONGER WAYS TO GO. BUT NO MATTER, THE ROAD IS LIFE.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i used couchsurfing while i was living abroad in europe for a year and am trying to get a sense of the san francisco CS community right now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

the best times i've ever had traveling!

i've slept on couches, floors, mats, beds, and in a hammock.

couchsurfing is the best way to travel, hands down. i love meeting new people, having random conversations, cooking meals for people and sleeping in new places.

Interests

I love being outside; be it hiking, camping, bike riding, or anything else. I take millions of photos but will always prefer my old polaroid instant camera. I'm always up for good conversation over a cup of coffee or a gin and tonic. I want to travel as much as possible, without hitting up all of the tourist spots. Reading, writing, drawing, and various other activities occupy most of my time.

• writing
• books
• dancing
• cooking
• beer
• coffee
• reading
• traveling
• drawing
• music
• cycling
• hiking
• camping
• swimming
• mountains
