Hello! My name is Hilary, yes just like the one you’re all thinking of...

I am Cali born, but Florida grown and damn proud of it! I am a traveler and recently came back to the states from backpacking in Australia where I tried Couchsurfing for the first time. It was truly an incredible and life changing experience.

I teach English as a profession, but I’m always trying to learn new skills and grow. I’ve recently begun wire wrapping and have been making my own crystal jewelry.

My next travel dream is to buy a conversion van and become Chris Farley... and live in a van down by the river! Maybe you will come and join me wherever I am one day!

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people and I want to experience all the local flavors. I want more than a surface level tourist experience, so I think couchsurfing is a terrific opportunity to explore a new place more personally.

Интересы

I am very adventurous, but also laid-back. I enjoy scuba diving, hiking, bike riding, yoga, walking and running. Reading a book and going to the beach or a park is my idea of a fun-filled day. Dancing is my all time favorite activity, and all I need is the music playing in my head. I like to meditate and wire wrap as a way to relax. I love art, but I also love science. I really enjoy viewing and learning about nature. Those are my primary objectives while traveling.

Музыка, кино и книги

I have a wide range of musical tastes. I especially enjoy disco, classic rock and 80's pop. I will boogie to rnb and hip-hop as well as electronic music. Chilling with reggae or twirling to salsa is also fun for me.

My favorite type of film is comedy. I also enjoy sci-fi quite a bit. I am a scaredy-cat, so I don't enjoy horror films.

I love to read and have been delving into much Russian literature lately. Can't deny that Harry Potter is one of my all time favorite series. I enjoy non-fiction as well, particularly those related to astrophysics or Taoism.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

An overnight diving trip out on the Great Barrier Reef and we saw humpback whales on the way!

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I could teach basic Russian and Mandarin Chinese as well as any level of English.

I want to learn any and all languages, or how to cook or bake something special and delicious.

If you can ride a unicycle, I would really love to learn how to do that.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

I can share interesting stories about my travels.

I'm pretty good at making tasty vegetarian and vegan meals.

If my host wants to spend time together, I can also share my unique company.
