24-year-old feminist-vegan-archaeologist-foodie-sagittarius-American from Kansas. Ex-art librarian/historian, currently pursuing work in archaeology and conservation. I moved to London for grad school in 2015, felI in love with a Spanish girl, and am now living full-time in my dream flat in East London. We've been surfing together since November 2016 so you can check her profile for more references :) https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/2004505682

I am always available over the phone/Skype or if I'm already in your area, to meet up so coffee first.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Meeting like-minded individuals is always a plus, especially when you're in a new place without much direction. Much nicer than spending money on a hostel and awkwardly sharing a room with people you've never spoken to. I've hosted a few traveling bands and their roadies as well, which is a great way to see local music. Also met a lot of other vegan hosts/surfers on this site, so that has been an amazing way to get involved with local activism and find out the best restaurants.

Musica, film e libri

I usually like dark, ethereal metal music. I also like electric sounds, hardcore, blues, funk, rock, and strange Scandinavian music. I really like foreign films (especially Japanese), old westerns, and kung-fu. And Dirty Dancing hah. I read a lot of comic books and non-fiction... textbooks usually. Luckily I love school.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I got to pick fresh kumquats from the garden of the mayor of Rocca Imperale, Italy while I was working there in the summer of 2012 :)

Insegna, impara, condividi

I'm really good at making [vegan] jelly donuts, rolling tamales, and cooking/baking in general. I can tell you a lot about the geosciences and ancient art of the Near East and Northern Africa. I love nature and can tell you some cool hikes and places to go. I can also watch UFC, soccer, hockey, or football with you can tell you all about them.

I would love to learn more about carpentry, architecture, judo/muy thai, and ANYTHING LONDON-y (especially cycle polo). I know very little about the neighborhoods, restaurant scene, and general social scene of England as I have never visited... but I live here now so please help me! I would also love if I could sing, but I'm not sure if that can be taught.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

Food (I cook!), pictures of dogs, haircuts, workout tips, art films, laughs!

Also cleanly services/house work/lawn maintenance/heavy lifting/light bulb replacement.
