CURRENT MISSION

Laughter is everything. Life is too short to not be happy. :)

ABOUT ME

***I don't use this website as a dating site so please do not send me messages if this is your intention. I am very excited to meet people that truly believe in the couch surfing system though so don't think I'm not friendly, I'm just not on here to date!***

I'm a bit random but I think that is what makes life exciting and interesting. Very friendly and open minded, always willing to lend a hand when I can...I really like to hang out with friends, people in general, and enjoy life.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to lead your life and let others lead theirs. I try very hard not to judge people, and if I've never been personally wronged by somebody I will keep an open mind about them. I don't like to stress out about things that can't be changed. I really like to have fun and I love it when people can make me laugh (I try to return the favor as well). I think it's pointless to be worried about things that aren't a big deal, and if you're always looking for the bad in everything then I don't want to be your friend.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can't host anybody right now, but if you would like somebody to show you around Bologna I can give you a little tour. When I get back to Seattle in Sept. 2008 my friend Sarah and I will be opening up our couch for guests!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I actually found my current apartment through couchsurfing. I'm on exchange in Italy and I was able to chat with someone from Bologna and he offered me a room while he is currently on exchange as well! I've stayed with some wonderful people in Switzerland, Turkey and Bulgaria. They were amazing hosts and I would love to see them again some time. :)
