Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I want to be creative and follow my bliss. I am more concerned with the journey than the destination. i want to find inspiration in what is around me and meet amazing people!
ABOUT ME
I'm an American- raised in Lakeland, Florida and went to Uni in Nashville, Tennessee. I lived in Daejeon, South Korea after my graduation where I taught English for 1 year. During that time I traveled to Vietnam, Cambodia, KL Malaysia, and Bali. I now live in Murfreesboro, TN, just 45 minutes south of Nashville. I love music. I play guitar and sing/write songs and play the French Horn. I love going to shows and being surrounded by music and influential people.
I am an honest person and I like to wear my heart on my sleeve. I believe if you think the world is good and trust in it, then amazing things will happen. they may not be what you expected, but in the end it's all good.
I like to live in the moment. I'm spontaneous and I love meeting people who dare me to be adventurous. I hope that I can inspire you to do the same.
PHILOSOPHY
"I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality."
-Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
My thoughts:
I believe in unconditional love for all living things. Race, religion, politics, or whatever doesn't matter when it all comes down to it. I find it interesting to learn about different opinions because I hold my own too, but ... love is all you need!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am living in Murfresboro, TN and I'd be happy to help any one passing through. It's just 45 minutes south of Nashville, TN. I can tell you about good places to go and we could even hang out!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I couch surfed in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with some great people who I can still chat with. I also couch surfed in Ubud, Bali. Again- the people I met (not even surfed with) will always be friends of mine.
