ABOUT ME
I am a very open-minded and easygoing person who enjoys traveling, meeting new people, and trying new things. I graduated last year from the University of Illinois. I worked for a little over a year at an educational services company, but I am now taking some time off to travel and prepare for graduate school or teaching English abroad next year.
PHILOSOPHY
"Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory."
"If you never did you should. These things are fun and fun is good." Dr. Seuss

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Fairly new to couch surfing, so I don't have a lot of experience yet. The one "couch" I have surfed on was a great experience though, so I look forward to more.

Música, películas y libros
Some favorite movies: Up, Pride and Prejudice, Bourne movies, Crazy Stupid Love, Ocean's 11, and really anything that's not super scary as I get really scared!
Going through a Mumford and Sons music phase, but I like just about everything. Classical to alternative to oldies to top 40 to jazz - really anything goes. Opera can be a bit much though sometimes.
I have no self control when it comes to a good book. I can lose myself in it without thought of the real world. I tend to enjoy fiction more than non-fiction, but I really like when some random historical facts get thrown in. Recent favs: The DaVinci Code, The Help, House Rules, The Hunger Games, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo...
