Hello all, I'm from Atlanta, GA where I have lived most of my life. I'm moving to Seattle, Washington to start a new job beginning in January of 2018. After I graduated university in May of 2017 I travelled for a month in Europe and then began a job working for a green building nonprofit. Now I'll work for a large insurance company as an analyst.

Hobbies/interests:
-I'm learning Spanish and I'm conversational in Russian because this was my first language.
-I'm an avid hiker/backpacker, runner, I love cooking, fashion, learning languages, reading mysteries, historical fiction, listening to music and podcasts.
-I enjoy trying out new sports and have gotten into yoga, boxing, and climbing in the past.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet people from around the world and share my experiences with them and also learn a thing or two about the places they live in. I think that Couchsurfing is a great opportunity to get a local's perspective and advice. In my opinion, this is the best way to make the most out of every place I visit.

Intereses

Outdoor activities such as kayaking, hiking, and camping. Running and cycling. I enjoy cooking and reading as well. Particularly, I love to learn new recipes from others and cook together with friends or for others. I enjoy movies and many TV shows as well. My favorite TV shows include The Office, Dexter, and Weeds.
