I am an easy going and friendly person. I enjoy long late night conversations and spending days wandering aimlessly. I am a senior at Sarah Lawrence College in New York. I am a vegan, but I am pretty low key about it (don't expect me to start preaching at you). I am a coffee fanatic, I believe in astrology, and my favorite animals all live in the ocean.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to connect with people all around the world. My best travel memories are from times that I have met and gotten to know real people living in real places. I want to make more of that kind of memory.

Interests

DANCE! I study contemporary dance both as a physical practice and academic pursuit. It occupies a lot of space in my brain. This year in school I have started studying animation and more recently Intaglio Printmaking. I am a relative beginner, but a fast enthusiast. I also love to read, write, do ceramics, bake vegan cakes, listen to music, and do anything outside. I love to make things and am always working on some kind of project, right now it's embroidery.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite bands: Blood Orange, Father John Misty, Fleetwood Mac, Frank Ocean, Mac Demarco,Talking Heads, Solange, Sufjan Stevens, Paul Simon.
Books: anything Murakami, Patty Smith, Toni Morrison, A Visit From The Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan, My Antonía by Willa Cather. I am a huge Faulkner fan, and I think Anna Kerenina changed me. I could talk about books for days.
Movies: I have seen an embarrassingly small number of movies but I love all Wes Anderson films.
