CURRENT MISSION

Save the World!

ABOUT ME

Hi!
My name is Allison. I am super happy, friendly, and outgoing. I'm 25, American, from New York. I love to travel, help the world, meet new people, and work hard. I grew up in California, and went to college in New York City. I enjoy dancing, learning new languages, and helping to make the world a better place. I'm friendly and responsible. I care about the environment. I have lots of experience babysitting. I speak English and Spanish fluently, French fairly well, and am learning Portuguese and Arabic. I have traveled to the Czech Republic, England, Ireland, Turkey, Austria, Hungary, Spain, Chile, and Argentina; and can't wait for more!

PHILOSOPHY

You may think I am a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to meet new people, show travelers around my home town, and learn about new cultures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm relatively new to Couch Surfing, but I have had so many good experiences of meeting new people in other countries, and strangers taking care of me, making me feel at home and safe in a new place, that I wanted to join this network, and meet more people, and help other travelers.

Interests

I dance tango in New York City. Since I began, I fell in love with it, and its what I want to do professionally now. I also love saving the environment and animals. I work as a babysitter, and love my job. Learning new languages is one of my passions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting the underground cistern in Istanbul and hearing the azhan there. Dancing beautiful tangos in Argentina. Holding the tiny babies that I take care of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my tango, belly dance, yoga, babysitting skills, and English! I also give good romantic advice, and am a good listener.
