My mind has been opened to the experience of new places when I decided to move from my small town in Louisiana to Philadelphia to live. Since then, I have encountered people from other countries whom I owe a lot of gratitude for helping me broaden my view of life and improve my understanding of different cultures.

I love stories and also serene moments in wilderness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This appeals to me for accomplishing my goals because I have the opportunity for understanding only earned through the intimate experience of living with people from the area.

Interests

I love seeking out humbling experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all kinds of music. I'm expanding my taste into Brazilian and Uruguayan bands to help facilitate my language absorption.

I can appreciate films as good art and also a means to drown the silence.

My favorite books would have to be A Confederacy of Dunces, House of Leaves, and Brave New World. I'm a fan of Nietzsche, which conflicts with my curiosity of metaphysics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been the best example I could be for my little sister and little brother. It is my wish to impart my lessons learned to them so they will have a better quality of life.
