Finding the hidden corners of the world
ABOUT ME
A lot of my friends told me "I am an amazing human being who anybody would be lucky to meet. He has a best heart anybody could have, he's a great person to travel, and hang out with."
I graduated from the University of North Texas (Radio, Television, and Film (RTVF) degree and a minor degree in marketing) few years ago. When I am not working, I would love traveling around the world, camping, rock climbing, and snowboarding in the foreign countries. I very much enjoy my life and everything else God has allowed me to do/have! I love to travel and hope doing more in the future (I am pretty sure you know I love to travel already :)). I am still getting adjusted to the city of Big D and Fort Worth. I'm always looking for new friends hanging out with!
What else I can say... Semester at Sea changed my life!!! I am lovely, smarty, lefty (lefty rocks! lol), and adventurous. :). I'm 6'2, athletic who loves to play with the sports and to do outdoor activities. Plus, I am a very open minded person who have been traveled around the world and who loves to explore and try new things. I just love learning about culture, the oxymorons in the world, and I love to have a good time.
PHILOSOPHY
I live my life to learn as much as possible, I'm very much aware of my surroundings and i know about all the world is facing. I fight it one mind at a time, but I believe everyone has a human rights, there are no laws against being naked, there aren't any laws against people of gender or race. Were all here seeking the same enlightenment, why not share what you've learned and maybe help someone with there own philosophy.
Overall... Love, Laugh, and help others :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
When I was oversea from my study abroad program, my friends told me about CS and I have been involved with it ever since. Currently, I participate by going to the Dallas group's "Thirstday" night gatherings and I have enjoyed meeting wonderful people while sharing a few drinks.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Through Couch Surfing, I'm pretty new with couch surfing and hosting a space for guest(s). I have had the pleasure of meeting welcoming, open, kind, free, and fun people. I have never felt so safe or honest with any group of people in my life. I love getting together to share stories, cultures, perspectives, and good times.

Teach, Learn, Share
Semester at Sea. Semester at Sea is perfect for someone wanting to get a better global understanding. People who go to one place, learn a lot about a specific culture, but Semester at Sea allows you to study certain topics (science, art, literature, etc.) and see it across many cultures. I learned about and experiences places I would probably have note gone to alone (i.e. India and Burma--and they were my 2 favorite stops!). On top of all this, you have AMAZING instructors; their experience was amazing. Another bonus was that I got to study next to students from almost all 50 states and different countries. Semester at Sea was the best thing I ever did, and everyone else I know who did it, feels the same way.
