Current Mission: To discover the life I've always wished to live, but was to wrapped up in papers, projects, tests, and all the other bogus stuff that comes from being a lifelong student. I want to teach. To inspire. To continue dreaming. To never stop learning.

I have a gynormous, comfy couch. Big enough for two if you like to be up close and personal.

I currently live on the West side of Bloomington. Very close to IU's campus, but its major appeal lies in its close proximity to Bloomington's famous Kirkwood and 4th streets. Many ethnically diverse places to dine, interesting shops, and many local social scenes to partake in. IU's campus is beautiful and well worth a walk around. I used to be a campus tour guide and would be glad to take you around any parts of campus/Bloomington. This whole community is close to my heart... I'm all about spreading the love although now it must be kept to evenings and or weekends.

I live with one roomate who is rarely ever here. Neither of us smoke and it is prohibited within the building AND all Bloomington bars and restaurants. We also do not have any pets.

Personal Description

I dig hanging out with kids. My biggest passion is education. I can't wait to be a teacher and am so far enjoying all of my pre-service experiences.

I like being close to my family and always having a support group of friends close by. While I never wish to return to my home town to live, I appreciate its simplicity and constant predictability.

I can't stand the thought of leaving Bloomington... so I might stick around after college. Hopefully land an amazing teaching opportunity.

I love walking. I love taking pictures. I love meeting new people, traveling to new places, and having my beliefs and understandings challenged. I enjoy sleeping. I hate shopping. I can't go a day without a big glass of water. I wish I was able to live in the moment more than I do. There's just so much to look forward to... I forget to enjoy what is in the here and now.

How I Participate in CS

I'm a baby to the CS2 Project. I would love to house future surfers and hope to crash a couple of couches this year with my future international traveling plans. Watch out! The Crazy Hannon women are coming atcha!

CouchSurfing Experience

I haven't had any yet... but my fingers are crossed that the friendly folks in Ireland are interested.

Interests

Almost anything interests me... if I don't know it, I want to learn it and I'd much rather learn it from someone then from a book or on my own. I have an appreciation for anything that challenges me, makes me think differently, or makes me reason against myself.

In general... I like... hiking, being one with nature, daydreaming on the beach, reading a good book, attempting to be good at taking pictures, making art, teaching, eating ice cream, drinking hot chocolate, eating chocolate, hanging out with good people...

Philosophy

Both enthusiasm and boredom are contagious... you decide.

What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

I hosted Kate & Kelly for just one night, it was a pleasure and I'm glad you had a restful time. Good luck with the teaching!
