CURRENT MISSION

Simple... enjoy life!

ABOUT ME

It is difficult for me to try and describe myself. I love, love, love to travel because I love to connect with people from different cultures. If I cannot connect because of language differences, I will try to connect through music, pictures or just smiles. I absolutely love food, I am told I cook very well. I play the ukulele, piano, drums, and I sing. I sing a lot. My friends will use me as their radio. I adore music (jazz, latin, reggae, alternative, anything really) and movies (art house, classics, experimental, independent). I study international affairs and cinema at my University, so I am always fascinated by the ways of others. I try to see the world as a whole, approach situations with a expansive perspective. I am full of energy and a wide-eyed excitement, thus I am always ready to take on any adventure. I hope you may get to know me, so I can try and get to know you. Mad love, peace and, remember, ENJOY LIFE!

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diam. Never hold back. I try just to be open with everyone. And I try to love everything and everyone. I figure, we only have one life to live so I might as well go all out.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a part of the couch surfing community because I love to meet new people from different places. I love hosting people, because I enjoy showing them around and introducing them to my home and helping them to see my cities through my eyes. I hope when someone hosts me, they can show me their home with the same happiness I see.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a number of couch surfers both in California and in Boston. Not all of them I met on couchsurfing.org, but it always works out. I have made some of very good friends doing this and hope to continue!
