CURRENT MISSION

I've always wanted to travel, I've always been interested in different activities, I always have creative projects in mind. Its time to stop wandering and actually start DOING these things.

ABOUT ME

First of all I'm terrible with words, yet I am an admirer or the art of language and conversations. I believe that everyone has a theme or focus in their lives-mine is connections. One of my biggest concerns is having a connection with myself and others. I tend to over analyze and break things down (not always a great characteristic). I'm a very caring person- for people, animals, and nature which explains why I'm an activist. I think there is much more to learn about me and there is definitely more to come during this time of personal intellectual growth, but I'll leave that for when we meet my fellow couchsurfers.

PHILOSOPHY

All I'm certain of is that in finding happiness I do not want to harm others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've seen was the Mayans in Honduras, but most of all the view from my Grandma's where you can see the sunrise, wake up to the call of many roosters.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm still trying to find that one thing I'm good at.
