Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just stumbled across this app. I’ve been traveling, trying to meet new people, and learn about local history & cuisine. Hoping this app will help me do all these things a little bit more easily.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Arctic Monkeys, Jimi Hendrix, Chance the Rapper, Kendrick Lamar, Evanescence, Pierce the Veil, Led Zeppelin, Queen. It’s a wide array that has no boundaries. Movies: HUGE scary movie watcher. The Conjuring, Sandlot, Black Panther, A Quiet Place, Get Out. Books: Harry Potter, The Hate U Give, Pride & Prejudice, The Help, I Am Malala. But those are just off the top of my head.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a pro swimmer for 1 1/2 years.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching people to swim. I truly think that’s something everyone should know how to do. Right now, I do a lot of volunteer work with my local homeless and animal shelters. I find myself very lucky and fortunate as a person, so I always believe in giving back whenever possible. Also, I work in the kitchens at the shelter, so if you wanna share recipes that are easy to create in mass quantities, I am here to learn.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to buy postcards from the places I’ve traveled. So I always leave a postcard for the host of the previous place I’ve traveled from so that they’ll give it to their next guest. Basically a “traveling postcard” thing.

I always bring my own toiletries, I’m extremely clean, can carry one heck of a conversation if it’s Harry Potter related, & I’m pretty good in the kitchen.
