Music, Movies, and Books

The easier question with this is what don't i enjoy. I've never really hated music before, though im not particularly fond of screamo and old twangy country, but i wouldn't argue with someone if thats what they played in my presence.

For books ive personally been drawn to fiction mostly, although i will read fact if it is interesting. I often find myself in a book based in history, but ive gone through phases with most genres. Im not a huge fan of thrillers or horror, but ive read a few here and there.

My movie list is not very impressive as i never really watched a lot of movies growing up, as my family could never agree on one to watch. Of those ive seen i really don't have a 'type' but once again im not really into horror or thrillers, although ive watched them here and there.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two come to mind. The first is that I actually left my small town in Canada and moved here to New Zealand. Alot of people live and die never having left that town, so it feels amazing.
The second is one of my dance performances. We had the opportunity to perform on a grandstand in the USA in front of about 2000 people, and it was quite the amazing feeling.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer some cooking and baking experience, as i really love to explore different recipes. I am also very excited to get to know people and have a very excited personality, so i will be happy to get to know you. I also come from the stereotypical small north american town, so you can learn about how boring it truly is. I also have been dancing for most of my life, so i will probably end up telling you some form of story about dance.
