Hey There!

My name is Ali and as stated above I grew up in the USA. I've lived in California for most of my life (with a five year stint in Ohio when I was a kid.)
I really enjoy Mexican food, having mondane conversations with new and old friends, dancing, biking around and generally being active. Ahhh and knitting! I love knitting. Learning new languages is more or less my passion. In the last 8 years I've picked up quite a few languages. German is my best foreign language, as I've lived in Berlin for the last two and a half years. I'm also quite good with Spanish and French. Got the basics down in Bulgarian and Swahili and am looking into learning Bambara next. Needless to say, I love coming accross new people who want to practice English or teach/practice their own mother tongue.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm really interested in coming into communication with new people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It might not be so amazing, but moving to Germany was quite the feat!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you to learn English, knit, how to make great Mexican food or some other cool international dishes. How to ride a bike.

I would love to learn about you, and maybe how to eat correctly with chop sticks!
