Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To get out of the 200 mile radius I have been living in for whole life, and learning a bit more about the world. Also giving back is part of the general theme I'm going for here.
ABOUT ME
I'm a recent college graduate. I moved back from Asheville, North Carolina. I've studied languages ever since I was in 2nd grade starting with Spanish. I'm a generally warm-hearted person. I've volunteered at a few non-profit radio stations and hope to continue this hobby in the future. Techology is a part of my life so I'm trying my best to utilize it instead of being a late adopter. Why not? I go to different meetup groups in Knoxville, and I'm working on getting one set-up for people with learning disabilities and dyslexia in Knoxville. I like to read non-fiction that is eddifying to my life.
PHILOSOPHY
I think it's important to allow your spirit to adopt things that are beautiful and true whenever you encounter them. I also think it's good to accept somethings as a duty to better yourself so that you can help others. It's also good in my opinion to strive to be knowledgeable about the world you live in. Other than that I follow the principals of Rock n' Roll. Also I feel that life is about creation and once we realize we have the power to shape our own lives in whatever way we can is when we'll truly actualize ourselves.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm interested in traveling, and being a good fellow nomad a bit.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
When I moved to Asheville, North Carolina I found some lady on Craigslist to stay with who lived outside of the city in Weaverville. It turned out to be a good three nights stay and not like the hotel in the movie Psycho. I've frequented my friend Ryan's couch when I've been in Nashville a bit.
