Well. I'm Emily. I am originally from Maryland. I am fun, easy-going, and, most importantly, open-minded.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I recently went on a trip with a friend through the South of Brazil using couchsurfing, and it was an AMAZING experience. Unlike "normal" housing arrangements, couchsurfing offers you the opportunity to get to know a place through the eyes of those who call it home. And think about it!, its so much better than paying just to stay in your "comfort zone!" You gotta live a little!

Interests

Alright, I like a lot of things. I like peanut butter and jellies at midnight. Hiking in the dark to see sunrises. I watch birds and foreign films. Walks are a necessity; runs are a fun chore, like watering the plants, you know? Cheese. I love ballet, but I suck at dancing.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Acoustic folk by day, blues by night, '90s rap all the time, and Britney, bitch.
The Avett Brothers, Jamiroquai, Céu, Angus and Julia Stone, Beck, Beyoncé (of course), Chris Brown (guilty pleasure), Daft Punk, The Head and the Heart, Iron & Wine, Punch Brothers, Céu, Orishas, The Shins, Wild Child

Movies: pretty much anything dramatic.

Books: Well that's just not a fair question...
