ABOUT ME

Right now I'm doing my second semester of study abroad in Athens, Greece after finishing my first semester traveling around Ghana. Basically I just like to have fun and am always looking to meet new people from all over!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

My concentration at school is in Shakespeare... but I promise I'm not as boring/pretentious as that makes me sound. I'm a sucker for cheesy Pixar movies and I also love Star Wars (yes, even the new ones... they're really not that bad). My favorite artists include Lauryn Hill and Lady Gaga (what can I say, I love slightly crazy but also talented women). I also happen to believe that Dr. Dre is the greatest rapper alive, but I'm open to a healthy debate about that, I guess.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

A while back I worked on a campaign with Amnesty International to free a prisoner of conscience, and then last year I got to meet her and hear her story first hand when she came to teach/live at my college for a year. Seriously life changing. On another note, I once found a penny that had a typo on it. Also life changing.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Well, I am a double major in English and Gender Studies with a concentration in Shakespearean and am currently writing an honors thesis entitles "From the Slums of Shaolin to the Bard of Avon." If you're a hip-hop fan then hopefully you'll get the reference, and if not... well then that's something I can hopefully teach you about someday!
