I'm a young professional working at a non-profit in DC, and living in Arlington, VA. I don't take myself too seriously, and I love meeting randos!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm always down for serendipitous adventures. Who doesn't love free things? And new and random people are the best kind of people! Additionally if I visit a new place, I want to engage with the people there, not simply view it as an outsider.

Intereses

I'm super interested in the Middle East (which is why I've studied Arabic and lived in the Arab world), and some of my favorite things include dancing (vogue, swing dance, salsa, Cuban salsa, really any kind of partner dancing), leading a healthy lifestyle (clean eating and exercising), and I love to make all kinds of food! I love God, and my faith is a central part of my life. I enjoy art museums, cute cafes, biking through cities (the best way to get around any city), classic 50s era flicks, and trying new food. I love theater and live performances, whether that be plays, musicals, dance, or concerts.

Música, películas y libros

I love a variety of worship music (Housefires, Will Reagan, Ascend the Hill). I'm a big fan of artists like Amy Winehouse, Sia, Corinne Bailey Rae, and Lana del Rey, and Lights.
My favorite movies of all time are Miyazaki films. Some other faves include Dan in Real Life, House of the Flying Daggers, Dirty Dancing, great documentaries (on food, health, and social issues), dramas that focus on real social issues in the world, classic films, and cartoons (Adventure Time being my favorite).
I wish I was more of a reader, but I am a sucker for late 1800s period dramas such as Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, and Pride and Prejudice.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I've climbed Mount Sinai in the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt and reached the top for a sublime sunrise.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I recently learned how to beatbox and could definitely teach you some basics. Also I love to teach people different dance moves (swing, salsa, rave, vogue), and I love to share meaningful conversations with people by asking deep and probing questions if you're up for it!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I am a super agreeable person, very open minded, and quite go-with-the-flow. I'm up for hanging out and trying new things or chilling and letting you do your own thing.
