CURRENT MISSION

laugh and get on the plane

ABOUT ME

I'm 24, easy going, currently working for the US federal government (the fear!!! I'll tell you all about it), about to quit my job and go to law school in the fall of 2013. This summer I'm making a run for it to Colombia.

Originally, I'm from New Mexico but now I spend most of the year on the US east coast - DC for now, Boston and New York before. I read voraciously - newspapers, blogs, fiction. Very amateur photographer, very excited see where this leads.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't quit learning

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far only surfing (in my defense, I'm couch-less) and it's been wonderful.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A couple of times during a year studying abroad in Europe. So far I'm nothing but impressed with the couchsurfers of the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Let's see...anything by Milan Kundera is right up my alley, Thomas Pynchon, fiction I can sink my teeth into. Almodovar's Volver is one of my favorite movies, La Teta Asustada, Sex, Lies and Videotape...but mostly I just watch True Blood (bad, I know)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a year in Madrid learning Spanish (y aun asi sigo con mis faltas...), spent a year in an art gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico. A Countess once gave me knee-length knee mink vest (no joke - it's my best party gear).

Countries I’ve Visited

Costa Rica, Czech Republic, France, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Spain, United States
