About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Choose the path less traveled by and discover wonders along the way.

ABOUT ME

Born in Dallas, moved to Ft. Wayne, Indiana then on to Houston, TX. Went to LSU in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and started resting my roots. I love travel and have been going abroad since I was 12. Volunteering In Mulukuku, Nicaragua has been the most fulfilling experiences I've ever had, I hope to go back one day.

For now, I'm stagnant but hope to soon begin traveling again. I'm ready to get up and move around, this is the time for it!

PHILOSOPHY

I think everyone should be treated equally. Those in need may need a little boost - anyone can provide a helping hand or lend an ear. This means you.

Life comes around but once - make the most of it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a new-comer to the Project, I haven't contributed too much, except time and money. it seems hard to get started. I have couched some visiting friends at my current home outside of CS.

Interests

I like cooking, practicing yoga, running, camping, and doing anything outside. I enjoy hanging out with friends and family, meeting new people, and chillin on the couch - I hope you'll join me!

Music, Movies, and Books

I typically fall asleep through movies, even if I like them...

I can listen to any genre of music, but if it's too repetative, I'll go insane.

I love novels, especially historical fiction. I can also delve pretty heavily into cook books and poetry.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I volunteered in Mulukuku, Nicaragua. During my time there, Hurrican Felix hit. I was stationed at a clinic at the time, so we loaded up the car and took it to the nearest river, then loaded a dugout canoe and shipped along, clearing the river as we went, until we reached those most in need. We offered medical and social services for these citizens.
