Hello all!

My name is Hosanna, and I live just outside of Philadelphia, Pa. I am overall a very happy person, and I love having new exciting adventures. New places, new people, making connections, but never forgetting or neglecting those who are constant in my life. I have learned immensely from every trip I've taken and I hope to take many more.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is quite simple, but hey, I'm young, still trying to figure out life. My philosophy is: Be nice to people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Get to see new places, AND meet new people, AND get the low-down on all the local digs? Yes please!

Interests

Partner dancing, especially swing, but also salsa, lindy, bachata, etc.
Tennis, knitting, and spending time with family and friends.
More generally, I love to learn new things. Can learning new hobbies count as a hobby?

Teach, Learn, Share

Also, I would love to learn about all the things that make your part of the world unique!
