Music, Movies, and Books
Music- I love a variety. One of my favorite bands is called Neva Dinova, but I like everything from old Kanye West to Latto to Neutral Milk Hotel to Ximena Sariñana. Not that big on movies but I like to watch things like what we do in the Shadows by Taika Waititi. Some of my favorite shows are curb your enthusiasm, I think you should leave and Seinfeld. I love fiction and non-fiction. Some favorite books include In Cold Blood by Truman Capote, My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante, and One of Us by Asne Seierstad

Teach, Learn, Share
Can teach English or Spanish, and maybe I know something about art. Would love to learn your language (I love to learn other languages and know handfuls of words in many!). Share a meal, coffee or drinks, a hike or adventure
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can cook you a meal, share music and conversation
