CURRENT MISSION

Embrace and experience something new each and every day!

ABOUT ME

I'm easy going and have a very laid-back personality. I just graduated from University with a degree in Psychology and honestly have NO idea what I want to do with it. I have a feeling I'll end up working as a teacher or in a school, but we shall see what the future brings!

I truly enjoy learning and living. I'm a pretty positive person and search for the silver lining in every situation! I'm currently living in Northern Germany and working as an au pair and loving every minute of it!

PHILOSOPHY

We are ultimately in charge of our thoughts and feelings. We can choose to make the best or worst out of any situation...I believe that we should make it the best, because, otherwise it isn't worth it.

"The days were long but the years were short" - The Shins

"Do you realize? that everyone you know someday will die, and instead of saying all of your goodbyes, let them know you realize that life goes fast, it's hard to make a good thing last, you realize the sun doesn't go down -- it's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round" - The Flaming Lips

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf mostly, but once I get a place where I can host people I'll be all about it!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed with friends and solo in Munich, Prague, Budapest, and Vienna. I have had nothing but great experiences and can't wait until I can start hosting people myself.

Interests

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

10-day meditation retreat in Colorado at a Buddhist Center. Completely isolated from the hustle-bustle of society, located in the middle of the mountains. Breathtaking!

Paragliding in Switzerland! Amazing views!!!
