Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To bask in the glow of as many things as possible...
ABOUT ME
Live in New Orleans, LA. Currently in law school so not traveling as much as I used to, but hopefully once I'm gainfully employed I'll get to vacation again! My bf and I love to meet as many people as possible and would love to host (keeping in mind we might ask you to return the favor when we have a chance to travel).
Love to sing, drink wine, read, and travel!
PHILOSOPHY
To make every mistake possible...I want to die knowing that there wasn't anything I didn't do. No regrets! It sounds cliche, but then again, cliches are generally accurate.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have an odd work schedule, but I'm down for hanging out on the days that I am free! We can go get coffee during the day, or go sing karaoke at night! Perhaps you can have an meeting intervention with me about my excessive use of exclamation points!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I haven't had any couchsurfing experiences yet, but I will be sure to let you know as soon as I do!
Interests
I love to read...I devour books at such a rate that it's become a really expensive habit! I need to get a library card...
Traveling, of course, is another of my loves. I don't so much enjoy going to other English-speaking countries...I like to immerse myself in cultures that are different than mine! I love hearing and learning new languages!
I have a degree in theatre...performing is what I live for! I try to sing in every country I travel to...I'm a karaoke fiend!
