About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To expand my patience, learn new things, & more importantly- to love all!

ABOUT ME

At the moment I'm visiting my sister in Harrogate, UK but am from Portland, OR, US. While there I was serving tables & going to school for a pre-med degree-- paying dues & pursuing the American Dream.

I woke up one morning & looked at my then- boyfriend who I was falling in love with & considered where this path was leading me: the completion of my degree, m-cats, med school, marriage, babies, house/mortgage, blah blah blah... I decided I'm just too young for all that right now. Im taking a spiritual break to see as much of the world as I can before have 'grown- up' responsibilities.

I love to laugh & have deep conversation-- let's analyze & have fun w/words!

PHILOSOPHY

"Love is all you need." All other feelings are tools to allow one to learn to love more deeply & truly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now, I'm just surfing. However, when I settle somewhere (maybe China next) I'd like to offer my couch. ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only stayed with one person, but he was a perfect host! His mentality was, "My house is your house," or in French "Ma maison est tu maison." Or something like that...

Interests

Lots ;) To start: snowboarding, light cooking, good food/alcohol, mmm coffee, reading, singing... I'll list more when they come to mind

  • cats
  • singing
  • dining
  • cooking
  • coffee
  • reading
  • surfing
  • snowboarding

Music, Movies, and Books

Big fan of sci-fi books; however, am now reading Haruki Murakami (not quite sci-fi)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Smoked a J on a Sahara sand dune while watching the stars pass by... That was pretty incredible!

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't take anything personal, just laugh it off!
