Hello, my name is Alisa and I'm looking for friends!

I'm moving at the moment, and will actively become a host again when I am settled in. Currently, planning a road trip to my new home and trying to find hosts looking to be kind to a girl and her dog.

I have traveled a lot in Europe, and excited to meet some amazing US hosts.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

As a guest:
I love friends.
Also, traveling is always funner with company. I'm not enough of an introvert to travel in my own company. It feels morose and like I'm trying to be a poet or something. I have a proclivity for annoying introspection when alone, and I will pick up a cigarette and scowl at all who look at me. (I'm kidding. But meeting people wins, you know?)

As a host:
I've had such a positive experience surfing and would love to return the favor to other travelers. I may not be the best at showing you around the city, but I can try. I have yet to do any touristy things here in A'dam so if you're into that, I can definitely do that; why not?

音乐、电影和书籍

I love a great amount. I hate country. I love mariachi. I'm serious.

I don't know. Live music is almost always wonderful. I'm that person that starts convulsing in the middle of the pit; then, you realize I was dancing the entire time and you start to feel bad for my dancing ineptitude. Other than that, I love supporting local bands and festivals; the Netherlands has so many that it becomes hard to keep up! I think my favorite festival is Beaches Brew in Italy, a free festival on the beach (Adriatic Sea), where I fondly remember Ty Segall smearing birthday cake into my hair while an Italian woman tried putting my wallet in her crotch. Good times.

Movies? Gosh. I like a lot. I know it's a cop out answer, but I'm not going to define my entire persona on three movies or something like that. I don't particularly align myself with action movies. I don't know why. The movie can be fantastic, but the genre overall isn't my cup of tea.
I like comedies mostly, thrillers, so-called 'art films', rock'n'roll movies (you know, like Tommy or A Hard Day's Night), dramas, historical epics...pretty much anything. And Mean Girls. YOU CAN'T SIT WITH US. YOUR MOM'S CHEST HAIR. I could go on and on.

Books are for NERDS. (Kidding! I love reading, but I'm a literary garbage disposal so throw me a suggestion and I'll read it.)

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I'm conversational, but you can be honest with me about when you want to hang out and when you want to be left alone. I'm a sociable introvert, if that makes any sense.
