CURRENT MISSION

To learn as much as I can and connect with as many people as possible

ABOUT ME

I was born in a tiny town called Hummelstown in South Central Pennsylvania. I moved to Philly to study fashion design at an art school but only lasted a semester. I love Philadelphia, so I stayed. After a very interesting progression, I'm back in school and studying English.
I'm traveling to Argentina this summer for the first time and it's pretty much all I can think about.
I also have the most wonderful boyfriend in the history of ever.

PHILOSOPHY

A choice, right now, between fear and love.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Connecting with people! I can usually host, though my schedule has been crazy lately. And, sorry, no boys on the couch. :]

兴趣

I read/write any chance I get. I'm a coffee addict and unreasonably particular about my cappuccino. I like seafood and red wine, though not usually together. I love cooking and trying new recipes (http://www.food52.com/users/795_ixshelle). I also love taking snapshots of Philadelphia. And nachos. I really like nachos.
