CURRENT MISSION

"Have the courage to let your life not turn out as you expected"

ABOUT ME

I´m petite, but I fight like a quarterback. I love my job, am too busy with school to have as much fun as I would like, but its all worth it- right? If you let me into your life I will do my best to entertain you with wit, good humor, and the plethora of stories I get from working at a homeless clinic in San Francisco´s tenderloin.

PHILOSOPHY

A few years ago I found myself wandering around the world, untethered to any particular idea, goal or person. I discovered the path I was on was not really where I wanted to be. It took a lot for me to change my goal, and even though I feel like I´m starting over sometimes, I am a much happier person for it. To summarize- "Allow your life to turn out not as you expected"- Dean Brackley

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to camp and rock climb. To date, most of my participation has involved helping plan CS camping trips in the bay area.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Back country camping in Lassan National Park, CA USA: After hiking in a few miles we sat on the beach of a lake to watch the stars. To keep warm we had to make a giant set of spoons, lying next to each other, talking about the beutifull sky while our teeth chattered. There was no one else around for miles.

Interests

books, bicycles, rock climbing, public health, aprendiendo español, box wars (www.boxwars.org), scrabble, Texas hold em, impromptu dance parties, finally being able to say I am proud of my president (elect).

Teach, Learn, Share

hmmm, I can teach anyone how to finger crotchet (exciting, I know), although the opportunity doesnt come up very much, I love teaching people how to print black and white photography by hand, and if you want to understand why drinking alcohol makes you have to pee so much, I´m your girl.
