CURRENT MISSION

say yes

ABOUT ME

I am a 23 year old student at the University of Texas @Austin. I love to be insurmountably busy: to move, to run, to cycle, to swim, to play, to read, to yell, to sing poorly, to climb, to hike, to drink, to eat, and of course to travel. I am from New Orleans, but can match any Texan with Texas pride. I am a hard worker and a loyal friend. I believe in letting others make their own decisions and in likewise making my own. I think that here is nothing more satisfying than finding a way to communicate with those I never thought I could.

PHILOSOPHY

The Golden Rule

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Last year I lived with a set of couch-surfing veterans in endless pursuit of adventure who taught me a lot about saying yes. They were the first to introduce me to couch surfing and we hosted almost every week from every part of the globe. I surfed for the first time in California last April.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had nothing but positive experiences with CS and am excited for more!
