CURRENT MISSION

Live, not merely exist - To love - To seek beauty

ABOUT ME

I am trying to live my life. I am loving it so far! I love to photograph things, people, anything... I read a lot. Imagining and creating and dreaming are incredible. I want to experience so many things and to see the world. I can be a bit quiet at first but I like to take in my surroundings. I prefer to soak in all that I see so words don't always come to mind right away. But, I have a lot to say and I love a good conversation and a good time.

PHILOSOPHY

Live, do not merely exist. Dream as if you'll live forever; live as if you'll die today. Smile and when you wake up in the morning be thankful you have another day to experience the world.

Live and love everyday you have on this incredible earth!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just got into this. My friend couched surfed in Chicago and throughout Europe and only had good things to say so I thought I would give it a shot.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Oh my... so many.

Love in the time of Cholera was excellent. As was Atonement and The Road. I am on to L'Etranger by Albert Camus and Candide by Voltaire.

Music - Wow. Endless list. Adore Shawn Mullins, Van Morrison, U2, James Taylor, lots of folk/mellow stuff, some comtemporary up beat tunes, some more modern electronic occasionally.

Movies: A lot. Pride and Prejudice was beautifully shot, as was Atonement, Amelie, Boondock Saints, Into the Wild, Juno, No Country For Old Men

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Thus far, making the decision to study abroad. Everyday is amazing. Traveling for two weeks on my own in London and Ireland. Incredible!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Make an excellent spaghetti sauce from scratch. I love it and so far all who have tried have also loved it.
