CURRENT MISSION

To knit my way through life!

ABOUT ME

Hello!

My name is Malina and I am a 21 year old finishing up my last year at University. I am studying Art and Italian and I hope to be an animator for an animation studio when "I grow up." I spent a year in Italy (June 2010-June2011)which is where I learned about Couchsurfing.

PHILOSOPHY

"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe in miracles"
-Audrey Hepburn

"Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."

"Be more concerned about your character than your reputation because your character is who you are and your reputation is who people think you are."
