CURRENT MISSION

To see the world!

ABOUT ME

Right now I am finding myself. I was one of those people who had it all figured out. I was going to be a classical flute performer and live and play music all over the world. I would finish my formal education (undergrad) in roughly five years and then start grad school at The Eastern School of Music in Rochester, New York and finish in 2-3 years and get a Doctorate and blah, blah, blah. Needless to say, my plans did not go accordingly. Instead I got carpel tunnel after 4.5 years of undergrad and so far that has been that. I am still learning to accept that just because things don't unfold exactly in the time frame and exactly how you want them to unfold doesn't mean that things won't unfold. I am living and learning and opening my eyes to so many different paths that I was too closed off to see before. I may become a classical performer yet, but until that time I am going to live my life and enjoy it. I am going to meet as many people as I can and try to have the best time doing it!

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to feel things. I'll take both the good and the bad as long as I can feel something. Emotion is what makes life worth living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to believe that there are good and trustworthy people out there who are just like me and want to meet new people and make friends and have fun in the process.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I can finally change this section! I just got back from a wonderful vacation in Chicago. I came, I couch surfed and I conquered! I loved my hosts and the other csers that I met along the way. Couch surfing is going to take the world by storm. It's such an awesome community to be apart of!

Interests

I enjoy listening to a wide variety of music, anything from Kings of Leon, to Lauryn Hill, to Jimi Hendrix, to Louis Armstrong, and The Doors. I love Music! I also enjoy running (although i'm kind of slow). I like to relax and just sit on the couch and watch netflix as well. I'm pretty easy going. I love traveling! It is my other passion after music. I hope to travel all over the world one day and know this will happen.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was wondering around New York City at night looking for a subway to get to the East Village and I ended up in Grand Central Terminal. I know to some it's nothing special, but for a mid-western girl like me who's always wanted to live in the big city, it was just a little bit amazing. Looking up at the constellations on the ceiling. Right up there with drinking sake in Tokyo, Japan on the 14th floor of a bar looking out at all those neon signs!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to play the flute if you have one! Playing an instrument can be one of the most gratifying experiences. You get the opportunity to add some beauty to the world!
