CURRENT MISSION

To live life...most people only exist.

ABOUT ME

Very ecclectic. I am very friendly and outgoing. The kind of person who's up for anything at anytime (with some limitations). Life is an adventure and even if it wasn't I would make it that way.
Not much of a planner. I am more of a go with the flow kinda person. If you don't plan anything then you have no expectations. Life is more of an adventure when it is unpredictable! Routine is for responsible adults.
New foods, places, people, ideas are exciting. I think it is the unknown factor that appeals to me.
Family is important to me. I was kind of forced into that (having four brothers and four sisters, tons of nieces and nephews and lots of great-niece and great-nephews).

PHILOSOPHY

Life is what you make of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A friend and I aimlessly rode bikes through villages in India. We came upon a group of 20 young kids playing a game we have never seen before. They asked us to play Gilli Danda with them. They couldn't speak English and we don't speak Hindi or whichever language they spoke. However, they were able to teach us how to play. We had so much fun and so many laughs without needing to use oral language. I just love going out not knowing what will happen or what you will stumble upon. I've done heaps of amazing things, but this was one that stuck with me.

Also just up and leaving the US for Australia with no job, no travel companions, no specific destination, nowhere to go, but everywhere to go.
