About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm not really sure what I'm ALL about and I'm not really trying to figure it out. I just want to try everything, well, almost everything. If you come to visit me, I'll do everything I can to make your stay exciting!!!! We'll party hard but also do the chill touristy stuff. If I come to visit you, just know that I'm very low maintenance, I can and do enjoy being alone, but I also love company. I'm a little awkward but I'm anything but shy. I get along with most people.
PHILOSOPHY
Life sucks but that doesn't mean you should let it defeat you.
Prepare for the worst while expecting the best.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've spent the night on a few floors and in a couple of beds and I've also let people sleep all over my apartment.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I won't put too much here but will say that couchsurfing is by far the most unique way of traveling. If you stay in a hostel or hotel, you know for the most part how your trip will unravel; however, if you couchsurf, each new home is a completely new experience. Some host offer hotel like service including tours and nicely folded towels, while other give you a key and say "have fun!!" The one thing you are assured of is meeting great, open people.
