About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to absorb and learn about as much cultures as possible- do all the weird things most people wont- blood pudding and haggis? yumm :)

ABOUT ME

I'm on the strange side- art will do that to you. I'm open minded and would love to learn from you. I love my family and i've always been blessed in that i seem to be constantly surrounded by good people. and by good people i mean crazy people. i LOVE crazy people- lets do something spontaneous!!

warning: i also take pictures of people constantly- i LOVE the way people look when they talk, laugh, daydream, etc- my friends are always warning me that one of these days a stranger is gonna go crazy on me for taking their picture.. but i do it anyways... so.. be prepared hahha

PHILOSOPHY

do my best to live like Jesus- to love and not condemn- to accept and love people as they are. everyone has something amazing to share!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interests

i love everything related to art from knitting to sculpting to throwing to... yeah seriously everything. i also love reading and listening to people's stories. i've had some of my best conversations about life with strangers on the train- the older generations have the best stories ever.

Music, Movies, and Books

Sound of Music!! and Elf! and ANY and ALL musicals! and i'm talking old school, 1950s musicals :) haha

and music? i'm open to everything- but I'm not a fan of death metal or screamo- other than that, I love acoustic, folk, jazz, punk, rock, etc, etc

and books? dont get me started on books- i adore reading- my mom used to punish me when i was young by not letting me go to the library- nuff said. we can discuss this if we ever meet :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

other than that... sit on a ledge in Portugal overlooking a breathtaking port, listening to music and drawing until sunset.

........i´m currently couchsurfing Austria and WOW. this place is... beautiful. the people, the scenery, EVERYTHING. i love my host.

and todaz i saw the alps. what more amazing could you ask for?

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach you to draw, paint, take pictures on an SLR camera, take pictures without people noticing (i still kinda suck at this one..) cook korean food, play guitar very poorly.. i can also teach you how to throw if you have a wheel and... huh.. hopefully i can teach you to look at things differently- and i know you'll teach me to do the same!
