ABOUT ME
Hello!
I am a fun, friendly, outgoing person looking to explore new ideas, customs and adventures. I am looking to broaden my horizons and meet like-minded people that enjoy having a good time and a good conversation. I am studying to be a registered nurse and will graduate in December of this year. I'm looking to broaden my horizons before I'm forced into workin' for the man.
PHILOSOPHY
"A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us."- Steinbeck
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have traveled quite a bit throughout my life but so far I have only couchsurfed once in Europe. However, it was a very positive experience and look forward to continue meeting new and interesting people while using couchsurfing.
Interests
I love the outdoors; hiking, skiing/snowboarding, cycling, laying on the beach or just sitting on a patio. I appreciate a good cup of coffee and a friendly conversation. I also really enjoy taking Polaroids, dancing and collecting vintage Playboys.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I enjoy all types of music (a generic response, I know) but it's true! Anywhere from indie to salsa to 1960s classic rock to rap. These days I'm favoring Beach House, Grimes, The Shins, The Smiths, and The XX.
Movies: there are too many to list here but mostly comedy and anything Woody Allen
Books: Anything David Sedaris or Pablo Neruda
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Going to the Atacama Desert and sitting on the edge of a cliff while watching the sun set over the desert while enjoying a beer.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can offer you plenty of suggestions to places to visit and a place to stay if you're ever in Houston! I also know a lot of cheesy jokes that I can tell you if you're interested.
I would really love to learn the culture of your city. From the best dive bar to your favorite park. I genuinely would like to experience your city and learn what makes it unique.
