My name is Kara, and I'm 26 years old from Atlanta, Georgia. I'm very mellow and I'm just looking for a place to stay. I love animals, I have a dog that is my heart and soul. I'm a very honest and blunt person, so I try to keep it real and I don't tolerate drama. I'm a quiet girl, as I have a panic disorder- I do shake like a chihuahua sometimes, but things are getting better slowly. I'm a very neat person, and I am very good at organizing and cleaning to show my appreciation. I would love to cook some good Italian comfort food if to show my appreciation. I'm very into art and drawing. I'm a portrait artist - I use pencil, but I also love to paint.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm down on my luck, honestly. I'm currently in Atlanta, Ga with my belongings trying to figure shit out at a gas station. I could not afford my rent anymore, but I do have solid plan. I get a paycheck tomorrow so I can put insurance on my car to get around. I also get paid Wednesday a good amount. I'm just really struggling to find anyone to give a couch, or a cot, or the floor just for a few nights. Help a girl get on her feet?

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh all music, except country- cat power, car Stevens, eminem, Billie holiday, Tool, red hot chili peppers, rap, rock, classic rock, grateful dead, ani diffanco, Fiona Apple, indigo girls. I love music and I'm always happy to broaden my horizons in that aspect.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not sure if I've done many amazing things, but my life is full of excitement. I raised my sweet baby Boah, my dog. He is my pride and joy. He just turned 7 and I could have never imagined loving another being as much as I do. I raised a happy pup, and that's pretty amazing I think.
