Old soul, modern mentality. Example: I like to bake for the serenity and elegance in abiding to a recipe. I like to cook because of the creative allowance in preparing nourishment for the body—just because I enjoy these activities and look good in an apron while doing so, does not mean I do it to satisfy the patriarchy.

Generally calm-natured, unless I get hopped up on rock and roll (just the music, no drugs for me, thanks).
Not sure if it's my Anglophilia or my reserved upbringing that begat my preference for silly, witty comedy over crass, loud humor. Either way, shared, genuine laughter is likely my favorite way to make memories. Inclusive of myself, many say they want to see the world. But I find it to be a great comfort, should I not achieve the loftiest of goals, in believing that there is a lot of world to see in getting to know a beautiful person.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

New to Brooklyn from SW Florida for an internship with StoryCorps - excited to meet fresh faces and bold minds, but I will need a space to hang my figurative hat.

Convinced StoryCorps to let me work with them!

教，学，和分享

T E A C H
English grammar, nutrition, basic first aid

L E A R N
Firm believer that every moment is an opportunity for learning, but particularly interested in absorbing what I can about: ASL, cinematography/film editing, cultural traditions (anywhere), art history

S H A R E
alternative baking tips, Disney trivia, bodyweight exercises (starting to think these belong in the Teach list, not really sure what Share is asking - when it comes to material possessions, unless it's a personal item like contact lens cases or underwear, what's mine is yours!)

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Would love to cook a clean meal together; share rigorous discourse on the nature of goodness, heroes and villains; would run lines with you for your audition; give a girl a minute to practice and I could harmonize in our duet or strum basic chords on a guitar.
