CURRENT MISSION

I find myself on multiple missions at a time.
Some of my main missions now include; staying in touch with friends abroad, graduating, seeing the wholeness and complexity of every person, and becoming part of the couchsurfing community!

ABOUT ME

I am 23 years old and will be graduating from UofM very soon! I study gender studies and am very engaged in social justice issues. I have done a lot of community work and have lived in a housing cooperative with 23 people for the past two years! This has been an amazing experience. I met my lifetime friends, had the opportunity to learn something new everyday form everyone, and become a responsible housemate! I am a huge fan of sitting on porches, having involved and important conversations, and enjoy ridiculous and fun conversations! (I love talking with people!) I really enjoy being active and doing new things. I have found that I thrive best in the unknown.

PHILOSOPHY

Impermanence. I had no choice in whether I wanted to embark on the journey of life, so given that, I must make the most of it. Whatever that may be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had friends who have couchsurfed in the past and loved it, however, I, myself, am a newbie.

Interests

I love traveling and meeting new people and being able to talk with them and learn from them. Also I love eating, cooking, camping, hiking, learning, running, and trying new things. This past year I started climbing / bouldering and skating!
