CURRENT MISSION

Live the Life You Love. Love the Life You Live.

ABOUT ME

I love life.

I have a lot of energy, I'm pretty ridiculous, and I laugh loudly. Life's too short to pretend like you're not having a good time.

My goal is to eat my way through the planet. I am a vegetarian, but I LOVE trying new foods. (though, sadly, I've found myself to be allergic to shellfish.)

Traveling is what I do best and I make friends easily. I love meeting new people and learning about them and wherever they're from. I'm pretty easy going: a plan is nice, but not necessary. I am respectful of other people's philosophies, politics, homes, and personal space. Wandering is one of my favorite activities. After all, "not all who wander are lost."

PHILOSOPHY

Words I live by come from my favorite author, Kurt Vonnegut:

"There's only one rule that I know of, babies - 'God damn it, you've got to be kind.'"

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm here to learn about the world from people (some who happen to be other Couchsurfers) and share as much of myself as I am able to. I travel through this world with an open heart and an open mind.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met so many people through couchsurfing - I look forward to meeting more!

Música, películas y libros

Music - I love it all. Seriously. Everything from death metal and post-rock to classical and jazz to pop music and punk and dubstep...everything. John Cage is my hero. I'm a music theory geek.

Movies: The Princess Bride, Labrynth, anything by David Lynch, The BBC Planet Series, Anchorman, SuperBad, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, the list can go on and on. I like comedies, I cannot stomach horror movies. I can do some dramas from time to time. Heck, I'll even watch a musical!

Books: Arcana (John Zorn's series), Lord of the Rings, Steppenwolf, Shogun, The Sun Also Rises, Traveling Mercies, Into the Wild, Alice in Wonderland, I'm a Stranger Here Myself, A Walk in the Woods, On the Road, and everything by Kurt Vonnegut. I love poetry and plays, too! Bukowski is my absolute favorite poet.
This list could go on and on. I really enjoy reading.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

We all have so much to offer each other when we keep an open mind and give our undivided attention. I love discovering what makes other people tick; it's inspiring.
