My name is Lizette. I grew up in the borough of Queens, New York to a large family of Puertorican Americans and Spaniard Jews. My childhood included a lot of pizza, a lot of graffiti, and a lot of hip hop and salsa music. Today, I find comfort in museums, libraries, and other academic environments. Friends and family say I'm impulsive, goal-oriented, analytical, and loquacious. I say, what do you mean by that? My name is Lizette not Loquacious. Besides, if I were to change my name it should make me sound like a person who were good with words. Like Henry, Jack, William, or Edgar. Only those are boy's names, I suppose. Let's talk about this later can we? I've joined a handwriting analysis group and wouldn't want to be the last one to sign in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on a mission to peruse the world in search of like minds, coffee shops, and a somewhat affordable cost of living. I've never learned anything valuable from a hotel room except for how to make toilet paper look classy.

Interests

Street art and environmentalism make me happy. Health and fitness are a strong preoccupation. This is not without a willingness to try new foods and take naps. My understanding of astrology is deeper than most, but I also enjoy all forms of divination. I have a very keen mind for grammar and languages.
