ABOUT ME

PHILOSOPHY

"The Sun will come out tomorrow!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first and by far most memorable experience with CS was "co-hosting" with my friend Nina. I had the pleasure of meeting a gentleman named Jin Ho from South Korea. We had a great time at Niagara Falls for the 4th of July; great conversation and lots of laughs. Not to mention the k-pop, buffalo wings and video games. All in all I'm glad to say I made a friend. It was a weekend I won't soon forget.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've seen so far has been Catacumbé in El Boquerón, Venezuela. I can't find words to describe it, but if we ever meet I can do my best to draw it for you. Words fall short, it was like magic!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my knowledge of making paper cranes and stars/knitting/baking. I'd also love to learn about different languages, cultures, and instruments (I'd like to make a courageous attempt).
