One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Things Rose has done:

Rose grew up traveling with her Dad and Step-Mom. I have traveled to Washington D.C. in America Twice, I have been to Quebec and Montreal and New York City, I have been to El Paso, Texas and Wares, Mexico. I have been to England, Israel, France, British of Columbia and Victoria's Island in Canada.

Every place i have been has many stories to retell and some have picture to show. I feel extremely lucky for where my dad and stepmom have taken me. I love to travel now and can't imagine going my whole life without traveling as much as i can.

I really had a great time being in Israel. I met my Step-Mom's family again. i hadn't seen them in 12 years. I went to Jerusalem and stayed in the old city. It was a little scary being in a semi-hostel surroundings. Israel is such a beautiful place. I went to the Dead Sea and floated around. I went up Israel to Nahariya to see the Lebanese border and stand in a cave with the Mediterranean Sea crashing inside. It was fun getting splashed by the waves.

I have been to the top of the Eiffel Tower, which was not easy because I am afraid of heights.

I Had this great experience in Peru, I hiked around on Maccu Piccu and had an amazing time. Also while I was in Peru, I met and built friendships with children from the third world country. Meeting them opened my eyes to understand how good I have it and how horrible it appears they live their life with barely anything.

Teach, Learn, Share

Bill is a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Bill has taught people Jiu-Jitsu and currently helps teach still. He has had 7 mixed martial arts fights and won all of them. Bill has a great understanding and love for Ju-Jitsu. Rose is enthusiastic to learn Ju-Jitsu too. She isn't going to do any mixed martial arts fights. She enjoys participating and watching Jiu-Jitsu very much. She wants to become very good in understanding Jiu-Jitsu, just like Bill.

We want to teach others how easy it is to travel. We want the people we meat via CouchSurfing to teach us what he/she knows about life about traveling and about the are in which they live. Bill and I want to share our couch, share our time, share our experiences from traveling. We want to learn about where you live, what you enjoy doing and where you want to travel and if you could help you in any way. We want to show gratitude the the CouchSurfing Community for creating this amazing opportunity to people worldwide for traveling.
