我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

My sister and I love traveling the world together and want to take several long trips across Latin America and Asia, crashing in hostels and using couch surfing. One of our favorite things about traveling is meeting the local travelers community. We love busy days and typically pack our itinerary full of museums, parks, and markets with lots of street food!

音乐、电影和书籍

I love Latin American writers, especially the female writers like Isabel Allende and Clarice Lispector. Eduardo Galeano is one of my favorite non-fiction writers and I'm working my way through his trilogy of Latin American history at the moment.

I don't watch to many movies because I tend to prefer reading, but I really love Disney movies and comedies. I cannot do horror films! They make me too scared, hah!

I've gone to a lot of live shows and several music festivals, my favorite being Osheaga in Montreal. I like pretty much every genre of music from EDM to punk rock to indie and alternative-- but my favorite genre is probably Hip-Hop. If I'm going to sing at karaoke, it's almost certainly going to be Kendrick Lamar or Beyonce.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Climbed 6,000 steps straight up a mountain in a sundress and wedges to see a shrine near Takamatsu, Japan. If I didn't understand a runner's high before, I definitely do now. The climb was very worth it, and the shaved ice afterwards never tasted so good.

教，学，和分享

I have a good knowledge of US Politics and a base knowledge of world history but I am always looking to learn more, to refine my understanding, and to broaden my knowledge.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Wine, witty anecdotes, and a whole lot of travel stories from lots of places in the world. Plus, ideally, a mutual love of cats (dogs (or anything fluffy) are good, too).
