CURRENT MISSION

Well, it's hard to be funny in script, but I'll take a stab at it... I like to laugh, sometimes at people, but often times with them. Traveling is fun, but what happens in Paris STAYS in Paris;) I don't like trashy people, so I shower, A LOT! I live...

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name's A.J.. I like things, especially traveling and learning languages and culture. I don't like tasting new foods, because sometimes it's gross and I don't want to offend anyone! I live in Germany now but I was raised in the States (North Carolina). I love music, and if there's a karaoke bar, I'm there! I always smile... life's too short not to. I'm the middle child, so I understand when it comes to the 'middle child syndrome'. You just have to meet me...

PHILOSOPHY

My feelings can best be described through interpretive dancing and loud singing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I'm poor (that's how it started) then I had a good experience when I went to Austria, and then I just decided it was the best/most fun way to travel. Right now I'm a user, because I am living in a dorm room (unless you want to share my bed, I can't host you, sorry!) but when I return home and finish up university I would love to host (if anyone wants to come to beautiful Greenville, North Carolina!)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with this awesome guy named Tom in Austria, he was great, and now I love couchsurfing. (It's truly the best way to see a city, too)

Interests

languages: Right now I only speak German (somewhat fluently), English (also somewhat fluently) and french (not so well, anymore...)
Food: I'm really picky about food, but when it's good, it's good...
Music: I need to be able to sing and dance to it, or I'm bored! (If You Seek Amy)

Music, Movies, and Books

Hum, what to say? I like movies where the bad guy wins... it more realistic! Hangbanger music sucks, but American oldies (with a beat) ruleZ! Books: I generally read ONLY when it's required for class... maybe?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I actually watched a whole film straight through without going to the potty.
I've driven the entire East Coast of the US. (beautiful)
I've been to Europe three times, and in those times I've been to 8 countries. (Germany, England, France, Switzerland, Austria, Czech Rep, the Netherlands, and Spain)
I've jetskiied on the ocean, and caught sharks in the process.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Really bad English, and I love to teach children about anything. Children are great!
Learn: Bring it on! I want to know any and everything!
Share: Well last week I shared my cold, but outside of that, if I've got it and you need it (tangible, intangible) I will share it!
