ABOUT ME

I cannot go a day without my bowl of oatmeal with chopped apples, my MP3 player, my skateboard (if it rains, I just bite my lip), and a good book. I really love conversation, sharing good music, eating nice food, and playing a game of chess. I keep my apartment clean, I appreciate everything that comes my way, and always find a reason to toast the occasion. I spend most of my week working as an Aupair, training for track & field, coaching soccer, skateboarding, and dancing at some of the worst clubs imaginable (I've been having poor luck, but at least I know where NOT to go :).
I love life and I keep positive! As long as their is music and laughter, I'm always motivated to give my best.

PHILOSOPHY

I really feel that in this short life of ours, it's up to all of us to do the most of the time that we have, but we cannot do it alone.

I live my life for the tingles in my back when I hear my favorite song or the good feelings I get when I think of new season coming in. I live for the people I love, the dreams I want to fulfill, and all of the good food in the world. I love yesterday just as much as today and tomorrow.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a couch provider, I hope to make your stay an easy and pleasant experience. I treat others the way I would like to be treated. If you leave feeling full, well rested, clean, and satisfied, then I did my job :)

As a couch surfer, I hope to make my stay an easy and pleasant experience for my host as well.

Couch surfing is all about teamwork. It takes 2 to make the experience enjoyable, and I guarantee my half of the effort :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Personal achievements aside, the most humbling experience of my life was climbing Mont St-Victoire in Aix-En-Provence. It was only 3000ft high, but i've never been felt such a rush, taking all of the hard trails, and being able to breathe all of the fresh air at the very top. I tested my own personal limits with heights! I left my camera at home by accident, but I'm left with life lasting memories of the rock formations, distant landscapes, and death provoking cliffs!

Teach, Learn, Share

My mother always told me that leaving your shoes on the table causes arguments. Always keep the table clear for food!

My father always quotes Homer Simpson "Trying is the first step to failure". Which means. if you're going to do something, don't try, just do it!

My best friend always tells me "If you're honest with yourself, you've got it right".
