About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Currently unable to host, but would love to meet up with any travelers!

To be cliche- I love to live and live to love. I am a person that wants to experience EVERYTHING. Nothing to risk my life, I could do that all towards the end. I really want to photograph the whole world too.

I love listening to stories of others and finding hole-in-the-wall type places. I view the world as a beautiful place needed to be explored. I love knowing that most people I've met via couchsurfing share the same views as I do.

I'm very outgoing, and love to talk to anyone who's willing to. I'm usually very upbeat, and can be very sarcastic. Some people may say I don't have much of an attention span, but I'm a busy person and need to be doing something all the times.

PHILOSOPHY

I think everyday about my life and where it's going, and I felt that it was counterproductive, as I kept saying I wanted to do all these things, and what I kept doing was going to this job everyday that I disliked, doing the same routine everyday, but dreaming different things every night.

Anyways, you only have one life, then what? Why not be happy and do things that make you happy instead of always wondering what if....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Again, I want to meet so many new people, give them a place to stay and tell them where the good places are to visit! I'd love the same in return.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so amazing. I've met the nicest people. People with so many stories. I love the fact that everyone we've hosted has been so respectful and amazing.

I've been traveling around Europe and I've gotten maybe 1 bad couch experience. Honestly I appreciate this community so much and the people that have hosted us.

I've met people that I will never forget, people who've inspired me so much and people I will tell about to other people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I feel I need to update this often, for recently I've seen some amazing things in Europe. By the end I shall create small list!

Roadtripped through the badlands at midnight as a spontaneous trip to see the 1000 foot drop, got lost drove for 5 hours which was supposed to be a 2 hour trip... hit a bird (first road kill which I bawled for an hour after) FINALLY reach our destination and sleep for 45 minutes so we can wake up at sunrise. So beautiful to see such an empty word with no car or building in sight and lost in this vision that I'll never forget and experience.

There's so many moments in my life that are so easy to forget, but I'll never forget the moments I really experienced.
