About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world from someone's point of view other than my own, and to have fun doing it!

ABOUT ME

I'm so random I don't even know where to begin.

PHILOSOPHY

I am Roman Catholic to the core, and I love to learn about the way other people find God outside of the Catholic faith. Diversity is something I see as a gift and I cherish it. Since college I've really met God on a deeper level and have learned so much about who I am and who He is, and I still have so much more to learn. But what God has taught me is to LIVE my life and not see it as a quest for knowledge, money or things. I am learning still how to love everyone I meet, and that is where I find freedom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only done it once, and it was a really good experience, hopefully I can couchsurf more soon. I've recommended this to so many friends.

Interests

I absolutely love to travel, sports, reading, just hanging out and having a good time, love to meet new people... especially sarcastic ones :) ... love movies and randomness, there is so so much ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a pilgrimage to Medjugorje in Bosnia Herzegovina (We don't have the right letters in the states to spell the names correctly, sorry ...) It was awesome

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about sports all kinds of different sports and injuries and the basics of how to help you if you do get injured. I love to learn more about the body and how it works and exercises that help do this or that. Hence my reasoning for going into Athletic Training, don't get confused though I'm not doing strength training what I do is more like physical therapy for athletes, best way I can describe it really.
I am really interested in learning more about other languages. I'm trying to learn Spanish and Croatian (Hrtvatski) right now but it's hard to find the right materials, if you have any good ideas for me, let me know!

Countries I’ve Visited

Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, France, Germany, Italy
