Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Because I'm unfortunately low on funds with way too many student loans and refuse to let it ruin my experiences and ability to get out and travel new places. I'm nervous and excited all at the same time about this experience and am so grateful already, should you decide to take me in.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Country: Florida Georgia line, The Band Perry, Zac Brown Band, Little big town Alternative/Indie: Mumford and Sons, Of Monsters and Men, Birdy, Adele, Amy Winehouse, Florence +the Machine it. Love Latin music and pretending like I know how to salsa Books: Self-fulfillment books, or books about the lives of the ordinary and extraordinary people. "Outliars", "The marshmallow effect"
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Impromptu hiatus from my study abroad program in Salamanca to a locals beach in Ibiza and spent a weekend there, finalizing my adventure celebrating the sunset on Benniras beach where traditional drums where played to the sun and thousand of hippies gathered to sell the products of their craft.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: Understanding. For one another; the ability to truly understand the background from which each human being comes is different. Learn: Acceptance. Acceptance of the fact that we cannot change everyone we come across in life, to have acceptance of it, is one step further in truly getting to know a person. Share: Experiences, compassion, encouragement, love. Each persons struggle through life is different. Share experiences, give encouragement love and compassion, because you never know how it will affect the person moving forward.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Super .. well pretty good cook, good going out buddy, beach buddy, music buddy, heck I'm a buddy for almost anything I'm up for all kinds of new adventures and will try almost anything once. Again, new to this couch surfing thing, so if there's something particularly that is usual to expect, please let me know.
My Interests
Running, working out, music,hiking, singing(in the shower), THE BEACH, animals of all types (preferably with fur), sports (played Ice hockey), painting, and above building memories and learning about the many walks of life.
