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.

Por que estou no 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.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

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.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

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.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

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!?).

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

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!
