I excel at spelling and editing books. I lived with my great grandma for 10 months in her condo when I was 13 before she passed away. I’m an ambivert.

I find American culture to be individualistic and stifling. I Look forward to the friendships that will develop by 2023 from using Couchsurfing as a way for simple but global immersion. In closing I’d like to leave with a quote from Michelangelo who said : “ The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it but that it is too low and we reach it.” God bless!!!
