CURRENT MISSION

Time to stretch my wings and meet some fantastic human beings

ABOUT ME

Basically, I'm 22-years-old and I haven't seen nearly as much as I want to see within this short life. Therefore, I want to get out there and see new things and meet new people and really get a sense of myself and the world around me. I go to school and work in the beautiful mountain town of Flagstaff, Arizona. I am a performer in a local well-known circus called Circus Bacchus. I am a whip artist, burlesque dancer and fire performer. I tend not to show off when I meet new people but if you hand me a torch and a lighter, there's really only so much temptation I can resist :) I love art, more specifically Chinese art, and I love learning about different religions. So far, there hasn't been one that hasn't held my full attention and curiosity. Learning is a beautiful thing. I think traveling will help me to continue learning on a more personal level...

PHILOSOPHY

Hmm how many Bob Marley quotes can I fit? Love is my religion?

As His Holiness the Dalai Lama says,

There is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophies. My brain and my heart are my temples; my philosophy is kindness.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Two of my very closest friends have been hosting for a while now. I have met countless fascinating people staying at their place and I plan on consulting with my roommates within the next week or so and hopefully becoming a host myself.

Circus, music, art, writing, reading, talking, walking with unknown destinations, did I mention music? and my adorable Rottweiler Lab named Jojo. She is the reason I thirst for experience and happiness...
