So I'm a recent college grad trying to beat the cubicle rush everyone else seems to be heading for, in favor of world exploration and incredible random friendships. I live in the wildly fascinating country of Morocco where I teach English to a group of eager students. Steadily increasing my record collection. Still play the original Tetris on an original NES. Live music shows, graffiti documentaries, and chai tea are staples of my lifestyle. I love learning and can do it pretty quickly, so anyone who has cool or unusual hobbies should feel free to share.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Just a girl with a dream kickin' it on the road. Hope we can do it together.

Living outside of America. Writing (I'm new to it, so developing my resolve and confidence is still a work in progress). Reading. Wes Anderson films. Violin, guitar, piano. There's plenty more to me. Just ask.

Music (again, this is the Sparknotes list): Beck, Queen, Led Zeppelin, The Clash, The Ramones, Japandroids, Diarrhea Planet, the White Stripes, Switchfoot, Bassnectar, Beethoven (I'm in love with the 6th Symphony...such is the life of an orchestra addict), Bizet, Mussorgsky...

Algo increíble que he hecho

Not sure if these qualify as amazing, so I'll let you decide.
1) hitchhiked by myself across a foreign country.
2) talked down a mugger into giving me my phone back.
3) leaped from a galloping horse and landed unscathed.
4) risked getting trampled by elephants while on safari.
5) finished college sober.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Teach: you how to make killer paper snowflakes, scuba dive, sass your siblings/roommates, and annoy people with puns.
Learn: how to play guitar, and just generally about the region where you live and what stuff you like to do.
Share: food, drinks, laughs (best enjoyed together).

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Warm, adventurous, independent spirit that can fit in anywhere. Also, I make great omelets.
