I'm easy going and sociable. I like meeting new people, going to bars, dancing, etc. but I consider myself introvered so I am also happy to visit an old library, go for a bike ride or get coffee with friends. I love discovering quaint coffee shops! I recently graduated and I like avoiding "the real world" by travelling around as much as possible.
Last year I studied in Mendoza, Argentina and I got the chance to backpack around South America with a couple of friends for a few months. That was my first experience with couchsurfing and I loved it! Right now it's not possible for me to host but someday soon I hope to repay all the generosity!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from the country that I am visiting. I love learning about other cultures, getting to know new people, and of course practicing different languages.

Interests

food, travel, hiking, reading, cooking, watching movies, dancing (I've taken classes in tango, salsa, and Scottish folk dancing), speaking other languages, hearing different points of views, trying new things...everything!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all music, I usually listen to the radio (89.3 the Current! - local music from Minnesota) or whatever friends put on.
I love movies and going to the movie theater.
My favorite books are fiction and I'm currently trying to read more in French and Spanish. Any suggestions for my next book?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I won a food challenge! I ate 6 spicy wings (with the same substance that's used in pepper spray!) in under 10 minutes and then had to suffer another 10 minutes without eating or drinking anything. After that I was given a warm glass of milk and 150 Argentine pesos as a prize. Not one of my best decisions and I'm amazed that I survived!

Teach, Learn, Share

My grandfather taugh me how to cane chairs! If you have all the materials I could help you repair your old chairs...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook (more or less, sometimes it's a bit of an adventure in the kitchen)! I also love talking and sharing stories, hay buena onda!
