About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To gain perspective through personal lengthy interactions with new places, people, animals, children and many uncomfertable and strange situaitons. The world is attainable if you reach out and grab it.

ABOUT ME

I am a 23 year old female looking to explore this planet as thoroughly as I can through interactions with the earth and it's animals. I focus a lot on spirituality and myth as a way to learn a culture, and open myself to most opportunities that come my way as an adventure in learning and self-growth.

PHILOSOPHY

If you dont have grass stains on your knees at the end of the day, I say you better seriously re-evaluate your life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Lived in a host house with many different faces coming in and out... what a wonderful experience to have the chance to meet new people from different walks of life right in your own living room!

Now I find I really could not live and travel as much as I do without couchsurfing. I have used it to the fullest during my travels through Peru, Mexico and China, and plan to keep it up for years to come, to continue forming friendships through immersion in the true local lifestyles of so many towns and villages, and to continue learning/teaching through the interactions made available by CS.

Interests

Exploring, learning, meeting, climbing, seeing, breathing, reading, writing, eating, laughing, camping, playing, teaching, being, growing, staying.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite reads: Old Man and The Sea, Hemmingway. Franny and Zooey, Sallinger. What is the What, Eggers. The Snow Leopard, Matthiessen. The Monkey Wrench Gang, Abbey.

Also, I´m fairly confident that all you need to know in life you can learn from Calvin and Hobbes.

Music is the key to the soul. it knows no boundaries and freely crosses language barriers and the wide wide oceans, forcing its way, with welcome, into the head, heart, and dancing feet of people across cultures. I love it.
