About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Forever exploring

ABOUT ME

I am an adventurer. I have always loved discovering new and exciting things, from inside the classroom to under that stars with all elements of the great outdoors. I grew up in the water, and feel deeply connected to it. I also love running, bicycling, rock climbing, hula hooping and yoga. I am independent, and I strive discover what inspires me most in order to bring light and positivity into the lives of those around me. Spiritually I feel in touch with something that unifies everything in the forms of energy, vibrations, and true love. Soul mates are many in this interconnected world. I don't believe in the social constructs of time, and feel freer when I am wandering, not lost and in the moment finding my way. I am loyal, I love my family and friends deeply. Throughout my travels I have made many close friends who will be in my heart from here on out. I am open-minded, creative and perfectly imperfect. I believe in pursuing personal betterment until the day we die. I am a quick learner, slow to forget and a merciful forgiver. I am a complete mutt which I believe gives me a unique perspective on viewing the world and it's population. I think before we know it the majority of the population will be of at least two nationalities. Then maybe we can all get along just a little bit better.

PHILOSOPHY

Live as if you were to die tomorrow, learn as if you were to live forever. (Gandhi)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to bring good company and warmth into any house I visit while traveling and I can't wait to share my hometown and LA where I go to school with others while I am hosting.

Wonderful experiences in Barcelona, Amsterdam, Norfolk VA, and looking forward to more!

Interests

Music, yoga, the nature of the world and it's inhabitants, life in its entirety. Learning about the ways of the universe and how much we are all reflections of one another. Prose and expression of forever flowing creativity. We all drink from the same waters.

Music, Movies, and Books

SO many. Mostly music and books. If we meet I would love to share with you my music collection, it is vast and diverse. And I look forward to hearing some from your collection of favorites, as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent last summer working at a summer camp near Yosemite for ten weeks. I went to the river almost every day, climbed half dome three times, and cloud's rest once. I lived in a cabin without electricity the entire time and realized a few things of what is truly important to life.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yoga. Music. Diversity. Healing of bodies; grand and small. Liberal world views. The non-existent nature of time.
