About Me

CURRENT MISSION

living to learn and learning to live

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in China for work at a Fashion accessories Sourcing/Manufacturing company. I've been there for over a year now and I'm planning on hopefully getting myself back home to the states!
After living in this factory for so long, I've come to realize that I'm probably too young to be stuck in a building and sacrificing myself to business, so I've decided to get back into traveling again and just be reborn. :)

PHILOSOPHY

HAKUNA MATATA!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I lived in the states, I use to host and do a bit of surfing myself in the east coast. It's been a while but I'm planning on getting back in the game!

Interests

I'm interested in soo many things.. I could be interested in everything quite possibly! I love learning new things all the time and exploring.
I love sharing stories, going to concerts or festivals, meeting new people, sewing, hiking, biking, travelling (of course!), cooking, eating, people-watching, partying, bbqing, picnic-ing... Ahh the list goes on! I really like talking to people, but writing is definitely not on my top list of interests!

I really love animals and all creatures that walk on this planet. I had to emphasize that because helping animals and protecting them is something I'm really passionate about.

Music, Movies, and Books

THERES SO MANY!

My favorite author by far is Haruki Murakami.
My favorite movies are Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind and Breakfast at Tiffanys. I actually have a lot more but this is the only one I can remember right now. I really enjoy Documentaries, Indie films, Old classics, Comedies and Horror/Thriller films.
My favorite Music is EVERYTHING besides modern country.. I mean I don't really hate it because it's still really interesting to listen to but I wouldn't say I can get down with it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nightime kayaking under the moonlight in bioluminescent water!! Magic happened there, especially once we plunged in for a little swim.

MORE AMAZING NIGHTS PLEASE!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food! I'd love to cook for my hosts or at least bring snacks. Other than that, I'll make sure to bring good vibes and laughter. :)
