CURRENT MISSION

I want to travel the globe and visit as many vineyards as I can.

ABOUT ME

I love wine. I love learning about it and working with it.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what ever makes you happy in life (as long as you are not harming anyone). Don't stress about something that you have no control over. Take in every experience and learn from it, and remain optimistic even if the experience isn't all that great. Open up your eyes to look at what is right in front of you and take advantage of every moment, so not to miss a thing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have met a few people through CS and we've remained friends for several years now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met a girl while I was in Madrid who had an uncle that lived in London. She had intended on staying with him for a while and invited me a long. He uncle let me stay with him under one condition...that I would babysit his 2 daughters. It was a fair deal to me seeing as how I love kids. So, he and his wife got to go out on dates and I had a bed to sleep in.
Another story...I also met a guy in Madrid who was from Scotland. He said that if I planned on going up to Scotland, that I could stay at his place. Although, I had no previous intentions on going up to Scotland, that was an offer that I could not resist. Not only did he let me stay at his place, but he took me out with his friends and showed me how the Scottish have fun.

Interests

I am passionate about music...it follows me everywhere...I wish I had an ipod implanted in my brain. I love exploring...I like hiking, walking, running, biking, and driving. Obviously, I love to travel. My interests also include psychology, philosophy, and anthropology. Oh! And I love watching movies...classic films, romance, comedy, drama, cult classics, foreign.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

2 things...First, I accomplished my extremely arduous brown belt test in Kenpo Karate. We were out in the woods for 2 days fighting off the evil black belts and doing everything that we had learned while studying Kenpo. Then the black belts left us in the woods that the last night w/o any lights, so we had to find our way back to our cars and then drive back to the karate school to camp out until the following morning to do the finishing task. It was exhausting, but I was one of the youngest to do it, at 18!
Second, I traveled to Europe alone last summer for 44 days. I had no idea where I was going or what to expect, but I made survived. It wasn't as scary as I thought it was going to be.
