CURRENT MISSION

Appreciate. There are lots of good things in this world.

ABOUT ME

I just got back to the U.S. from studying abroad in Buenos Aires for 5 months and I'm looking for good people to know. But I'm especially looking for kind and patient people to practice Spanish with!

Acabo de regresar a los EEUU despues de haber estudiado 5 meses en Buenos Aires. Estoy buscando a buena gente hispanohablantes para conocer.... Extraño mucho hablar en Español, me mata que ya esté perdiéndolo...

I live my life under the rule of empathy. I´m an identical twin so I´ve grown up sharing my house and my thoughts with someone.

I´m a college student at Colorado College, studying Sociology, Environmental Issues and Spanish (minors).

PHILOSOPHY

The main difference between life and poetry is that with poetry, people sit back more often and sigh...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Busco conocer a hispanohablantes en Boston. Mi meta con los idiomas, como con todo en la vida mia, es entender mejor...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only couchsurfed twice! I've had some strange experiences in Buenos Aires and I DO NOT use CS as a dating service. Know this well before you contact me.

Interests

Good challenges, painting (oils, watercolors, & acrylics in order of amazingness), drawing, photography, POTTERY!!!

Pero sobre todo apreciar las cosas y la gente. Y siempre alcanzar un entendimiento mejor.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmmm. Sentir que estoy total y verdaderamente aprendiendo.

Most amazing things for me are when I've REALLY, truly feel like I'm learning.

Teach, Learn, Share

I prefer not to arrange people into more of a hiearchy than they´re already caught in.
In other words: if you think you´re better than someone else, chances are you´re just different from them but you´re judging them by your standards.
