Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love traveling and meeting people from different places. But I am also a teacher, so that means that my budget is more than a little tight. Couchsurfing seems like the best of both worlds: meeting people and saving money!
Music, Movies, and Books
Everything Toni Morrison. Favorite movie: Big Fish Favorite musical artists: Amel Larrieux, Beyonce, Frank Ocean, FKA Twigs, SZA, Akala
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Spent a month in Havana studying Orisha dances. I moved to a foreign country without really knowing the language.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: How to be a Bad Bitch Learn: A few words in your native tongue, a local favorite hotspot Share: My amazing cooking skills
What I Can Share With Hosts
I would love to cook you a meal to say thanks. I'm fairly skilled in the kitchen, if I do say so myself. We could also sing a bit, create some harmonies.
My Interests
Classically trained dancer...aspiring singer...semi-professional writer.
