Overview
About Me
I’m a 22 year old Linguistics grad from Southern California whose talents include but are not limited to: forgetting to think before I speak, running into inanimate objects, and avoiding adulthood at all costs. I love languages - I’m fluent in German and Spanish - and keep a travel blog that can be found at FernwehFeels.weebly.com.
Likes: Spanish coffee, German beer, Mexican food, French crepes, Moroccan tea, Irish whiskey, Dutch cheese, banana-Nutella ice cream, tattoos, good books, the beach, snowboarding, quality conversation, great music
Dislikes: Mangos, wearing shoes, ignorance, close-mindedness
Travel rules:
-Try everything once
-If at the end of the day you’ll wish you’d done it, do it
-Keep numbers of close friends and family memorized in case something resulting from the aforementioned rule gets you arrested
-When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half your clothes and twice the money.
Music, Movies, and Books
Hitting "shuffle" on my music is a dangerous game bc you'll hear everything from The Dirty Heads to G-Eazy to Spanish reggaeton to Van Morrison to German rap to classic country to the NWA to Jack Johnson.
I'm always reading, whether it be fiction for fun or current affairs for awareness or a topic I know nothing about so I can pretend to be smarter than I really am in casual conversation.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once went a whole day without tripping and falling over my own feet, which was pretty incredible.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have Celiac so pretty much all the food that brings joy (ie. bread, pasta, beer) is out of the question for me unless it's gluten free. Luckily chocolate and wine exist so I will survive.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A love of travel, sarcasm, alcohol and intelligent conversation
