Overview
About Me
For the past 2 years, I've been traveling around Europe and working as an Au Pair. I love checking out new cities and meeting people in the process. I have been told that I could even become friends with a spoon if I tried hard enough.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have pretty much been CS the whole time I have been abroad, but just finding places through mutual friends and or family members. It is such a great experience to meet locals and really see the area you are visiting through their eyes, not the typical "touristy" view.

Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy all types of music ... except country.
I am a huge Quentin Tarintino movie fan and obsessed with "The Office" US version.
I am a little nerdy as well and will always hold the "Harry Potter" series close to my heart :)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Becoming an Au Pair. When you are working for a family, living in their home and trying to make new friends, it is a lot of pressure and hard to adapt. The best thing is adapting though and living through the incredible experiences that you get everyday.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: acceptance
Learn: as many languages as possible
Share: food :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I know my way around the kitchen and can cook a mean dinner.
Also, I love to learn/talk so if you want to talk, it'll be hard to shut me up.
