My life motto is "transcend the bullshit." This manifests itself in a myriad of ways. In my own life, it means simplifying as much as possible, working hard to build my intellect, wisdom, and cultivate meaningful relationships with other people and places.
We will get along swimmingly if you share my love of laughter, earnestness, honesty, adventures, food (especially healthy and delicious food), and meaningful travel. My favorite moment of any friendship is when you wonder whether or not something is appropriate to say, say it anyway, and then the other person is like "DUDE me too!" Boom. Friendship made.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

First and foremost to contribute to worldwide good vibes: I always appreciate it when other people help me when I am traveling. Therefore, if you are an openminded, kind, but most importantly SELF-SUFFICIENT person who needs a free and safe place to sleep I would love to help you out! Secondly, to meet new people and learn new things, to share my love for the places I know, and to travel on the cheap.

Intereses

The stars, burritos, hammocks, learning languages, hiking, heights, bungee jumping, saying all the things that everyone is thinking but everyone's too afraid to say, just being around dogs, surviving impossible things, meeting new people, playing tennis and volleyball, reading and hearing peoples' stories, and writing my own.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I know a lot about English and Spanish, having been speaking and learning them for a long time. I can teach you everything you would want to know about tennis and American football (this always seems to be a crowd-pleaser among Europeans haha.) I know enough about cooking but am always interested in learning more. I love literature and music and of course would love to share my passions with you. Teach me some of your favorite things!

I am especially interested in learning other languages (like Italian and Norwegian!), photography, poetry, more about hiking and camping, and where your favorite spot in the world is.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

laughs and cooking skills and great music and an ear that's happy to listen

a towel and pillow, a couch, a blanket, a bathroom with some shampoos and other showery things in it, definitely a delicious home-cooked meal
