Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
As of right now, I'm just trying to enjoy life and get educated. My ultimate mission is to see as much of the world as I can and meet interesting individuals along the way!
ABOUT ME
Pssh...I was once asked what one word I'd use to describe myself and my reply was "RANDOM!" That's all I can think of to share for now but if you want to know more about me, feel free to ask!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Went on a 2-month excursion backpacking through Europe with my sister. We loved meeting new, different people and staying with locals of the cities we visited. I like to absorb as much of the culture and energy I can in every place I visit.
Interests
The obvious...traveling!
Doing extreme things e.g. bungee jumping, skydiving like I did in Interlaken, Switzerland!
Reading although I don't do it as much as I'd like...like I used to.
I love helping others...participating in events and activities that are of benefit to others like charities. I like to believe that acts of goodwill will and do make the world a better place.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies - I'm an avid movie watcher! My collection of dvds keeps piling up. I enjoy movies pretty much of all kinds...horror (the more gruesome, the better!) to sci-fi, romance to drama, epic (the best ones always tug at my heart no matter how many time I watch it) to foreign, you name it!
Music - I'm Deaf so I cannot hear a thing. Although I can feel music, it's not something that I actively seek out as a source of entertainment.
Books - I like to read and wish I read more. Recently, I was really into Kurt Vonnegut, one of the best modern novelists with such an interesting mind. One of my goals is to read as many classics as I can and also read those I find interesting and thought-provoking.
