I love biking, cooking, soccer and tennis, movies and books, languages and traveling, meeting people, not knowing where the day will go, music and arts, hiking and camping...I love being alive

I have lived abroad in Bolivia and speak fluent Spanish. I have so many interests and am always overwhelmed by questions asking me my favorites of anything! I love to meet new people, learn from people, and be active and creative. Check out some of my work at www.careyaverbook.net

I'm super flexible, laid back, and am one of the most understanding and empathetic people you'll ever meet. I give people my attention and presence and consider myself to be a good listener.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I love to explore and discover places through the people that live there! I'm interested in people and love connecting with good and interesting folks. I prefer to follow locals' recommendations or tag along with their friends than going to super touristy spots. People make experiences meaningful for me :)

Interests

I love dancing, biking, soccer and tennis, kayaking and boats, museums, galleries, and art interventions, movies and music, books... philosophy, anthropology, design thinking, and psychology. I love to cook and eat healthy, but I'm a total sucker for french fries and ice cream. I love to meet new people where I live and when I'm traveling and love to travel and learn about history, cultures, and people's different life experiences! I love to dance and be chill, garden, hike, and listen to good stories.
