Writer. Reader. Cat lady. Language nerd.

I am very interested in learning about other cultures, especially about food! I like food a lot. Especially eating food.

I have a number of hobbies including weightlifting, ballet, whiskey tasting, and knitting.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I joined years ago with the idea of road tripping across the US. These days I fly more than I drive, but I still like exploring and meeting new people.
