CURRENT MISSION

Meet people that can show me around Rio

ABOUT ME

I am very friendly and am very passionate about music. I like electro, pop, rap. I am a student and I love spending time at the beach. I am very interested in learning about other cultures, especially religions.

I am generally open minded, friendly almost always. I am very indecisive but at the same time, very laid back, down for almost anything. I want to travel so many places and I am excited to get started immediately. I was born and raised near San Francisco, California, lived a few years in Lima, Peru, and I am currently staying in Rio de Janeiro. I am studying here and will stay for the whole year. I also love to have a good time and wonder around by myself =]

PHILOSOPHY

I've found that smiling at others, performing acts of kindness, and being well-mannered can get you far. Treating others like you would like to be treated seems to work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have participated by getting to know fellow couchsurfers just to hang out. I'd like to start hosting!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met wonderful people in Brazil and Argentina while couchsurfing.

Interests

Shopping, music, dancing, cooking, philosophy

I love to write poetry, turn it into music. I can spend hours in my room researching new bands and genres. Besides that, I am an avid shopper. I LOVE pleasing others with food; it's one of those great highs in life spending time in the kitchen cooking for your friends and family.

Music, Movies, and Books

I will name some random bands I like:

Book wise:

People are always surprised when they realize I just don't enjoy reading that much. But, if you took a look at my book shelf, you would think I was studying religion. I love reading religious books, anything from a book about hindu gods to the psychology of religion.

Movies:
I don't watch many movies either. I enjoy dark comedies. Some movies I enjoy include Garden State, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Clueless.

Teach, Learn, Share

I need to work on my Portuguese. I can teach how to cook some of my favorite foods and help with English.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Mexico, Morocco, Peru, Spain, Uruguay

Countries I’ve Lived In

Brazil, United States
