Hey y’all! My name is Kelsey and I’m passionate about learning new things. Anyone who knows me knows I’m always eager for good conversations about most anything- I love to learn things from people who know more than I do. That is probably the biggest reason I’m interested to start couchsurfing- I want to learn about your city from your own unique point of view- and of course, I would love to get a coffee or a beer and chat, practice your English or practice my Italian or Spanish, talk about music, movies, tv books, food, (most things!) learn more about your city, etc. Looking forward to meeting you!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like experimenting in the kitchen and make lots of pastas and salads and also like baking- let me make you food or I can teach you how to make pasta fresca all’uovo (fresh egg pasta!) or homemade jams and sauces. Teach me your favorite recipes!
