CURRENT MISSION

I want to give weary travelers a place to stay and meet as many amazing people as much as I can!

ABOUT ME

I love to travel, experience new things, and constantly learn from the world around me. I am an open person and down to pretty much anything whether it's going to concerts, going on a hike, finding out the best restaurants and most importantly, exploring!

PHILOSOPHY

"It's everything is connected and beautiful and now I know just where I stand." - Silversun Pickups

"I like living. I have sometimes been wildingly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all, I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing." - Agatha Christie

"But trouble sharpens the wits..." - Unknown

"The only difference between a tattooed person and a person who isn't tattooed is that a tattooed person doesn't care if you're tattooed or not."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in Seattle and I love showing people around Seattle and riding bikes!

Interests

I have a short attention span so there is so much to see with these two small eyes of mine! I love to live life and again, I love to learn about the world around me. I like to talk to random strangers on buses, trains, hiking trails or wherever I am! Everybody is connected in some way or another. I love to cook and help others in any way I can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the amazing things I've done is moving to Japan to English. I have never moved out of my parents house and lived on my own. It is absolutely terrifying to go to a country where I didn't know anybody and didn't speak the language. I suffered from culture shock where I didn't eat, sleep, was very stress, and depressed. I missed my home, family, and friends terribly. But because of this experience, I have learned more about myself, my personality, and what I can do to become a better person.

Another moment that left me awestruck was when I decided to get Khan (my tiger tattoo on my ribs, yes, I name some of my tattoos). I got my first tattoo when I was 18, but I didn't think I would get more. After two years, I decided to go big and had a huge tattoo on one of the most painful places possible. I plan to get more and want to be full bodied when I become older. After getting Khan tattooed, I decided that being tattooed is a life style that I fully accept and is a part of who I am.
