About Me

I'm curious soul, full of spontaneity with a lifetime of strange and wonderful experiences. I love going with the flow of life and seeing where it takes you - on second though, this might have something to do with the fact that I'm extremely bad at making decisions! Either way, it seems to be working out well for me.

Committed to my love for anthropology, working in the world of public health and health promotion, traveling and vegetarianism.

The motto I live my life by, (thank you for the inspiration, Charles Bukowski) "Find what you love and let it kill you.... for all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it's much better to be killed by a lover."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couch surfing lets you enter somebody else's world and gives you an opportunity to experience the world from their point of view. It's an amazing opportunity to experience the real culture of the city or place that you're visiting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I managed to roll a double 'r' when saying the word 'carro' in Spanish. It was only one time and I have never been able to make that proper double 'r' sound again, but it was a proud moment - the only witness was a taxi driver at the Nicaraguan/Costa Rican land border.
