CURRENT MISSION
Have true interactions of substance
ABOUT ME
I have a traveling spirit. I hope to learn more about the world and bring that into my existence. I am pretty spiritual but not a religious freak. I believe in balance, creativity, and The Universe.
I am super fun, I never have a boring time because life truly is what you make it.
Currently, I am studying in Breda, Holland at a University. I study Tourism and hope to go onto get my Ph.D later on. Right now I really need to be moving and enjoying life though.
PHILOSOPHY
We create our reality.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have hosted and surfed. I try to participate in the events in whatever city I go to. I really want to preserve the culture of couchsurfing instead of this free hotel service system that I have been hearing horror stories about.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Host and surf. My family growing up always had someone stay a month or a week, so I am used to that lifestyle. So far Couchsurfing has been amazing. Where else on earth could you sit and have a great meal, stimulating conversation, and laughs in someone elses living room. Hostels for the most don't cut it!
Interests
BIKING!!!!Music, Art, Dancing, Traveling, Creating, Moving, Writing, Taking pictures, and sound samples. I've been trying to teach myself to water color but I'm not so good at it. I like deep conversations. I love to laugh until my stomach hurts and water pours out my eyes.
