CURRENT MISSION

To see as many places as I can.

ABOUT ME

I am shy but fun, quiet but quirky, looking to have fun and break out of my shell. I like to read, write, and listen to music. I wish that I could play an instrument. I am getting more into outdoor activity as well.

I don't want my shyness and fear to hinder me anymore, and after traveling to Ireland in 2007, I realized that there is a whole world out there to live in. I am hoping to learn about exciting new places and people through this forum.

PHILOSOPHY

Be decent to your neighbor because no matter where we are from that is a universally understand concept.

Create your own path along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Up until this point not very much but that is about to change.

Interests

As I said before, reading, writing, and music. I love animals, the outdoors and exploring. I am very interested in dead and dying cultures and believe all people, whether seemingly the same or different than me, have something to teach me, and I want to learn from them.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies-Drop Dead Gorgeous, Dazed and Confused, and the Bad Seed.
Music- Led Zeppelin, Beth Orton, Damien Rice, Tool, Radiohead, and Fleetwood Mac.
Books- The Sirens of Titan, The Great Gatsby, Jonah's Gourdvine, Rabbit, Run.

I have many more interests but those are the highlights.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My answer, since I have sheltered myself for so long, is boring but true. The most amazing things I have witnessed is the cruelty that one person invokes to another but also the unadulterated kindness that one person showers on another.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have learned to not judge books by their covers. I would like to teach people that apathy keeps them human, we are all equals, and sometimes going a little crazy is not a bad thing.
