Hi! My name is Alex. I am a very passionate person and I am thrilled to meet new people. Animals are my favorite things in the world, and I get along splendidly with children as well. Almost always enthusiastic, and I am just trying to figure out the world around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is truly an amazing way to meet people. My main goal while traveling is to make friends and connections. I firmly believe that there is still a tremendous amount of good in the world and what better way to find it than Couchsurfing?

Interests

I basically love everything. Nature, playing, Netflix binging, doodling, saying hello to every dog I see. The list goes on. Most recently I am really into comedy, particularly stand up comedy, improv, and writing lesson plans.

Music, Movies, and Books

Folk music has my heart. Not much of a movie kinda gal, but I love me some Netflix originals and NBC comedies. Harry Potter nerd, memoir nerd, open to reading most everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled around France totally alone (without any proficiency in French) at age 17.

Also, my students made incredible planets today and I made a beautiful bulletin board to display them. Yay!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love education. I love learning. I love sharing knowledge. This is where all of my passion and joy lies--let's make the world better by learning, teaching, and sharing kindness, knowledge, and love.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am an adequate cook, but I love to clean. If you are looking for someone to organize your house, clean up a mess, and redecorate in a short period of time, I'm your girl. Besides that, I an offer lively conversation, lots of laughs, a complete willingness to play with animals and/or children, and an excess of kindness.
