CURRENT MISSION

Trying to sneeze with my eyes open

ABOUT ME

I am a recent graduate of Berklee College of Music in Boston, formerly lived in Madrid, Spain when I created this profile and now I'm back in the US preparing to move to Los Angeles. Easy going, loves anything music and arts, slowly becoming completely addicted to travelling, hoping to do more!! Looking to meet lots of good people and always enjoy going for a coffee or drink. My couchsurfing experience so far has been amazing and look forward to more inthe near future.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short...no, really, it actually is really really short so make the best of it! Communicate with others, try not to worry too much, trust your gut feelings and push yourself to often visit uncharted territory outside your comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At this point I unfortunately am not able to host anyone. I hope to travel a lot in upcoming months and hopefully for the rest of my life so if anyone is willing to have me I would like to surf some couches in Europe to begin with and network and enjoy quality time with good people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met up with a whole batch of wonderful Barcelona couchsurfers. Fun fun fun.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working as a carpenter in training for a year. Great people, great education and so important to spend at least a little time smashing stuff, creating beautiful things and hopefully making a lot of people happy in the process and getting some exercise while you're at it.

Teach, Learn, Share

This was originally my answer to the "Amazing Thing Done/Seen" section but now I've changed it. -->Visit to Morocco with Morocco Exchange out of Granada, Espana. As of right now this one is very much profound because it's fresh in my mind. I am being pulled farther and farther away from my habits and being forced to reexamine my priorites and goals. That in itself is a blessing. I was so warmly greeted my all Moroccans that I shared time with and "couchsurfed"/homestayed with. Beautiful people and a country I need to learn much more about...hopefully in the near future.
