ABOUT ME
Hello, I like learning from other peoples' stories and experiences. Having a good laugh and not taking things too seriously is just as fun as a serious conversation - good to have a bit of both. Adventures and the idea of missing an opportunity for something exciting and beautiful never sits well with me and I will go to great lengths to realizing a plan for fun. Terrible at planning and details - last minute and spontaneous are usual, unless there is an orderly person to help ;). Activities are always preferable to only sitting and talking, easier to build real friendship and memories that way (watching movies or sunsets counts as well).
I am a portrait painter: evannyangelene.com & @evanny_angelene
PHILOSOPHY
Smile at the world and it will smile back. Express good things, you get good things, sometimes you have to work incredibly hard for it and other times, simply let life happen and embrace.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Share my experiences with couchsurfing, the whole philosophy and the immense benefits of making new friends with cultural or time exchange.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Through Italy, France, and Germany. Met some amazing people I intend to stay in touch with for a long time, and had incredible experiences that otherwise would not have been possible, it has helped bring magical moments and affordability to traveling.
Interests
Primarily my specialty is fine art, painting and drawing, however it is always interesting to learn anything new or more in depth. I live for being outdoors in nature: dabble between hiking, climbing/bouldering, kayaking. Also: vegetable gardening, raising animals, horses, health, cooking and baking, music/concerts, books, travel, language, architecture/refurbishing/tiny houses, permaculture, films, societal issues (limited politics)
Music, Movies, and Books
My taste is diverse for both. The Unbearable Lightness of Being, The Aeneid, The Island, Jitterbug Perfume
Films that have a good moral story and phenomenal acting. Many times short films are the best films. Amelie, My Family and Other Animals, Lobster, Notes on Blindness
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Accumulated memories of magical little moments. Sitting on warm giant rocks overlooking the Mediterranean at sunset with a group of friends in Riomaggiore. Skydiving and cliff jumping in Italy. Caring for thoroughbreds and kayaking in North Georgia….Innumerable
Teach, Learn, Share
Questions and answers come out in conversation. Most things art related, homemaking things - baking/cooking, gardening, animals, sewing, health.
I would like help learning either, German or French and improve Italian. Cooking different cuisine.
