About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn about life by meeting people

ABOUT ME

My mother once said, "You just won't be happy until you experience EVERYTHING life has to offer!"...and I think this is a good description of me! I'll try anything once. Even if it is a bad experience, at least I will have come out of it learning something! I am cautiously optimistic and tend to be practical, yet adventurous. After traveling solo for 8 weeks, I have learned to laugh at what life throws at me, and wink back at it knowing it has some new surprise for me around the the corner.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't take yourself too seriously

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am traveling now, but was able to host a couchsurfer who I met during my travels in an apartment I was renting at the time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Was hosted a few times in Italy, and went to several Couchsurfing events. Had a fantastic time meeting new people, and learning about their stories! I inevitably meet other Couchsurfers everywhere I travel!

Interests

Food, learning languages, cultures, self sustainability, yoga, hiking, exploring anything. I like being an observer, and taking in the sites, sounds, and people's interactions around me while traveling. I find things that I admire in people, and try my best to better myself with the same characteristics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flew a small airplane for half an hour. I've done a lot, but this was the best experience because I was totally in control yet very vulnerable.
