About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience culture, people and places by living it!

ABOUT ME

Here's my facebook: just friend request me and say you are from Couch Surfing!
http://www.facebook.com/leah.m.sawyer?ref=profile

I love going out and entertaining new and old friends at home. There's nothing like good weather, good food, good vino, and good people.

Top Two priorities in my life: Living my dream and traveling the world with the love of my life, Ben! First stop Rio de Janeiro, Cidade Maravilhosa on March 2nd!!!! and getting ready for Burning Man (if you don't know what it is ask, it an amazing art community that is self sustaining for 10 days!)

PHILOSOPHY

1.) Strangers are just friends I haven't meet yet!
2.) Everyone has something positive to offer the world!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach people how to surf, skateboard, and snowboard.
I play the piano, so I can teach you that if you like.
I can help you brush up on your English.
I can cook you food. I love to cook especially when I'm traveling! =)

I would love to learn more about customs and fashion and other cultures. I'm sure you can teach me or show me any of your talents and I would be amused.
