I am from Atlanta and have a diverse range of educational interests and hobbies. I have a degree in Political Science with a focus in International Relations. I also previously attended art school for a year and almost went to film school.

I love the natural world and animals. I have a pet cat named Mona and thought about becoming a photographer and went to the Savannah College of Art and Design for a year on a professional writing scholarship.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love talking to interesting people and look forward to learning more about the world and its people with couch surfing! Beyond that, I love to travel and couch surfing is obviously a great way to start seeing the world.

兴趣

I like reading, cooking, and coffee and have worked a variety of odd jobs to get through my undergraduate degree and can honestly say I think I share an interest with just about anyone since I love science, math, most sports, fiction, movies, theatre, cats, dogs, political science, art, dancing, coffee, walking, running, espresso,cooking, fashion and have read a variety of magazines or books about all of these subjects.

I eat a vegetarian diet with a few servings of fish each week and like reading about healthy eating and general fitness articles (but expect to be feeding myself on any of my couch surfing journeys).

音乐、电影和书籍

I like to read a lot of different kinds of books and would read something from any shelf in a bookstore since I have worked in one, but I don't entertain my bookworm inclinations as often as just reading magazines. My favorite books are still detox books (but I don't have a drug history!), sci-fi classics like Ender's Game, popular fiction bestsellers, and cookbooks.

My choice of movies is more particular. I like artistic movies the most like those by Woody Allen. I also really enjoy action and adventure movies like the Mummy movies or sci-fi movies. I also like watching drama films. Occasionally I will see an animated movie because I love art. For tv I only like watching comedy talk shows and the E! channel but still really like film.

I like popular music and my iTunes account has about 1,000 classic songs picked randomly from the last 30 years. So I don't really get stuck on any particular genre and even like listening to a classical music. I just don't always like a particular popular song and most music I listen to just has to have a good rhythm or voice. Some of the artists I listen to include: Jewel, One Republic, Imagine Dragons, Lorde, Katy Perry, Kesha, Rage Against the Machine, Coldplay, Marina and the Diamonds, Fiona Apple, Beyonce, Jay-Z, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Adele, Lenny Kravitz, Janet Jackson, Pink, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Dave Mathews Band, Jack Johnson, Aerosmith, and a lot more!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I went on a "blue diamond" snow mountain when I was six years old but my dad accidently gave me unsafe snow boots for a kid that wouldn't stay stable in the skis. I was stopped by the ski patrol at the top and they gave me the most amazing sled ride down the mountain in a rescue sled pulled by a professional skier down an incredible blue diamond because my skis weren't safe! It was definitely unforgettable and much more fun than skiing!

教，学，和分享

I can teach people how to:

-Play basic melodies on the guitar but I would like to learn more about music.
-Draw basic pictures color pictures but I love discussing art in general.
