CURRENT MISSION

To live it up before my health fails me.

ABOUT ME

When I was 3, I flew from California to Alaska all by myself. I loved the experience, and I've been traveling ever since. Some of my favorite memories have been purely spontaneous, and that's my attitude when I go to new places. I've tasted lamb penis and drank snake blood in foreign countries. It was awesome.

Here's to spontaneity :)

PHILOSOPHY

"A mind is like a parachute; it only functions when open."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I check my couchsurfing account weekly and especially when I know I am traveling to somewhere new. I plan to participate more once I get a place of my own, graduate, and start traveling!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had only a handful of couchsurfing experience, but each and every one of them was wonderful! I've stayed with couchsurfers in Bahamas and hosted a guy from Ohio.

Interests

I love the world of literature, but journalism has been my forte as of late. I also love roadtrips, stumbleupon, and dancing to techno.
