I'm a master's student and IT consultant. Well educated and well traveled, and love to meet new people.

I'm ambitious, easy to get along with, driven, but also pretty laid back. I can talk for hours about music, books, life, and traveling.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm hoping to meet some new people. My friends are an amusing palate of diversity from anywhere from Australia to Austria, from Cali to Canterbury, and it never hurts to add new names and new faces into the mix.

Intereses

I can never say no to a good book, and my Spotify playlists are constantly fluctuating between mid-1900s classics and the alternative French electronic jazz of today. And I know so many useless pop culture facts that it's ridiculous.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I read the Divine Comedy in Italian. So beautiful, and so painful to read.

Other than that, triple majoring and graduating with three years was kind of shocking.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Always up for Italian or English language exchange. I'm also decent with computers, as I work in IT in the States while attending university.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Great conversation, and if you have flour and eggs, I make amazing homemade pasta. Carbonara is amazing. I also love Mexican food, but the more complex the dish, the more of a toss-up it is about how it turns out.

Also, the occasional bottle of whiskey.
