Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy life, and get to Belize for the spring semester
ABOUT ME
explosively crazy, passionate, sensitive, a travel nut. I love Atlanta (but that doesn't keep me from visiting everywhere), my home, my family and friends. I miss Brasil, meus amigos, e cairpirinhas. my friends are my family, my beau is my life, and my favorite sodas are Squirt and Fanta Apple.
PHILOSOPHY
I want to spend my life being a culture sponge. I want to see as much as I can, and have unique experiences wherever I go. Dedicating my life to personal education as well as educating others.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Can't host anyone in my current situation, but i'd love to meet interesting folks and welcome them to our beautiful (and freaking HOT) city. Also, if the opportunity comes up to go somewhere, I'd love to find CS to find a place to stay.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
none.. really. but I did live a year in Brazil and tended to jump from peoples houses a lot. best year of my life really.
Interests
Brazil, portuguese, planning trips, camping, photography, anthropology, roller derby (watching it... I'm not THAT tough), good music, good friends, good beer, and indulging in my 420 urges.
