ABOUT ME

I think my goal in life is to have as much fun as possible (ETA: I wrote that four years ago. I think my goal in life is to learn and to love as much as possible)

PHILOSOPHY

I only wish there were more hours in the day! I wish I could take up a new hobby every week. Traveling away from the US for the first time has opened my eyes to this big, wide world, and I intend to find out what its all about.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do my best to live in the moment - often easier said than done! I am continually amazed by people and the world, and I do my best to carry the past and dream of the future while living in the moment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in Brussels and learned the importance of preparation! I did not connect with my host well beforehand so ended up napping in a Belgian park... but had a great experience once we finally met! And overall, learned a lot.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: (Even though its annoying when people say it) pretty much all... living in the South has given me a greater appreciation for folk, bluegrass, and a little country music. I love classic rock, and have been known to frequent my fair share of jam band related events. I used to live a few blocks away from the summer home of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and I didn't much about classical music, but could appreciate the beauty. I used to play the violin and clarinet, but when I return from traveling I plan on actually learning to play my recently purchased guitar.

I like movies and books, too.
