About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to learn the historical backdrop of the countries I visit, have fun and meet new people! :)

ABOUT ME

I'm low-key for the most part. I like this surfing concept because we'll still be in the honeymoon phase when I leave. I just want to explore the world and meet new people. I can be very talkative, however! So if you're a talker, too, let's have a conversation! :)

PHILOSOPHY

The best thing you can do is try, while the worst is to complain when you haven't tried at all. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started surfing on Mar. 23, 2011. So far it's okay! Just from one night I've discovered something new about Sofia. I was also excited to show my host and recently departed sharing surfer the playground dinosaurs I thought were shrubs! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have no complaints thus far! I also like the personal connections I've been making! :)

Interests

dancing, music, games, fun, trying to learn new languages, etc.

  • dancing
  • flying
  • painting
  • music
  • surfing
  • bungee jumping
  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

Of all the books I've read, the most influential have been Ayn Rand's *The Fountainhead* and *Atlas Shrugged* - not because of capitalism claims, but through identification as an artist. Basically: You have to be true to who are. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I bungee jumped once when I was in Canada, but the greatest thing was riding in a helicopter (had the opportunity to try flying and landing). I wish I could afford to take lessons to become certified as a pilot - what a great job that'd be! :)

On Mar. 28, 2011, I para glided for the first time! I so want to do more things like this! If you have an interest, too, let's have a conversation! :)
