“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...” - Dr. Seuss

ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Jennifer and I’m a seattlite from Washington! I finished my undergraduate work in communication, environmental studies, with a minor in sales from the University of Washington. Obviously I was all over the place, but I’ve finally decided to go into medicine (yet my mind is constantly in motion and ideas flowing so one day medicine, the next astronaut, who knows). Either way, yay to being in school forever! The plus side is that I can have as many gap years as I want and it’s somewhat socially acceptable.
Sooo about me…
Three things I can’t live without: Tea, humor, and stories
People describe me as laid back, open minded, and a 'tough cookie'
If I could live off of anything for the rest of my life it would be fruit

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

surf and hope to host when I stay long enough in one spot

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only once randomly when I met a lovely French guy on the train in India who easily convinced me to come with him for his first time couchsurfer experience

兴趣

Reading. Climbing. Diving. Hot Yoga. Fruit. Juice. Walking/Wandering. Swimming (born sea creature without the skills of swimming a normal water animal would have). Any kind of transportation that lets me sit and read...kind of makes me feel like I'm multi-tasking as I'm making my way somewhere. Sharks. Old houses. Trying new food. Health. Seeing how other people choose to live. The interactions of people. Random Facts. Board Games. Coffee. Did I mention fruit?
