Howdy! I'm Allison-- 29, DC area native, avid reader and dreamer whose mission in life is to make the world more beautiful.

When I'm at home, I enjoy cooking delicious vegetarian meals, reading novels on my balcony with a glass of wine, and watching films on Netflix. When I'm on the road, I enjoy meeting new people (especially if they teach me new things or enjoy debate as much as I do) and swimming in new places.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Meeting ppl from around the world and the United States broadens my horizons, and continues to prove to me that humans are essentially good and loving.

音乐、电影和书籍

Eternal Sunshine is my absolute favorite movie forever and ever, the end.

I'm currently reading The Unwomanly Face of War by Svetlana Alexeivich, translated into English by Pevear and Volokhonsky. Before that I finished The New Jim Crowe, Life's Work, and Between the World and Me.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Amazing thing I've seen: the stars in Hawaii, standing with my little brother on the edge of a cliff, looking out over the ocean. I've never seen stars that bright.

教，学，和分享

I'd love to share my love of board games, so if there's a board game cafe near you let's plan a trip while I'm staying with you. I've been practicing yoga and meditation off and on for several years and am always keen for company (and can even show you some new moves maybe, who knows!?).

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

As a thank you for hosting I can bake you delicious vegan goodies. I've gotten pretty good at those over the years... I'm always willing to lend a hand so if you need anything done around the house, we can do it together. Oh and I can also offer good conversation over tea late into the evening!
