CURRENT MISSION

To remember: "With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy."

ABOUT ME

I am Sarah. I'm a short, shy yet spunky gal and just want to experience life. I love learning about and seeing the world and dreaming about future trips. I have a personal 100 Wonders list (who am I kidding, it's more like 300) that I am determined to get through.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to live the best life possible. I want to be happy, and I want others to be happy. I have some rules in my life that I live by: no drinking, no smoking, no drugs, no swearing. I respect people that respect me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have mostly couchsurfed with friends and relatives, from local stays to the opposite end of the earth. In Thailand I ended up bouncing around different homes, meeting all sorts of people!

I am hoping to overcome my own fears and shyness to couchsurf with people I do not know, and become more outgoing and make some new friends.

Interests

I have a wide variety of interests, from obscure musical instruments (didgeridoo anyone?) to barefoot running, to reading and tv-watching. I'm down to try anything once, and have a massive life list I am slowly chipping away at. Animals are my life - I train service dogs, and hope to make a career out of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Don't even get me started :) I love to read and I love love love movies.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to tell people about where I am from, where I have been, and where I am going. I do my best to answer all question about me or other things!

I would love to learn about YOU - what you have done and what you want to. I love learning about new places to travel, and as I am a horrible cook, if anyone ever offered up a cooking lesson I would be game!
