CURRENT MISSION

To figure out how the world fits together

ABOUT ME

I love music, art, film, philosophy, and food. I always want to know everything there is to know. I love going out, especially if it involves dancing, but sometimes I'd rather stay in and chill with friends. I love being outdoors, whether in the city or in the country. I love people and figuring out what makes them tick. I'm a pretty active person, and I can't stand feeling useless, although I'm also a pretty bad procrastinator...
My biggest worry is that there isn't enough time in a lifetime to do everything I want.
And I feel like it would be redundant to say I like to travel and see the world...

PHILOSOPHY

I wish people remembered the Golden Rule more often ("Do unto others as you would have them do unto you")

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I traveled a lot while I lived in Spain during college, and my first 2 couchsurfing experiences were nothing short of life-changing. I met incredible people and saw incredible places, and became aware that this community allows you to feel at home absolutely anywhere in the world. The people in this community understand what life is all about-- exploration, learning, and friendship.

I have just moved into a house with 3 roommates in Los Angeles, and would be happy to host people from time to time.

Interessen

I work in Development at a digital media/television production company, but am also a singer/dancer/actor and am currently pursuing improv comedy. I couldn't live without singing and dancing.

I like cooking and building things with my hands, but never seem to find enough time for those things...I definitely appreciate good food and healthy living.
