CURRENT MISSION

Just moved to Downers Grove, a west suburb of Chicago. Looking for work and hoping to meet some new people!

ABOUT ME

After a year in France working as an English teaching assistant, I've come back to the states and it's time to get back to the real world. I've recently moved to the Chicago area and am looking for a job.

I love to cook with my boyfriend, play tennis, dance, take walks, and read. I enjoy spending time with friends and am looking forward to meeting new ones. I'm a crazy Francophile who will try to teach you French if you get enough drinks in me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I've never actually couch surfed, I have met a few people for coffee/lunch, especially while I was in France. I'd like to use CouchSurfing now to meet other people in my area.

Interests

Reading, writing, French culture, cooking, animals. I'm really into Ohio State University football. GO BUCKS!

Music, Movies, and Books

I typically like Oldies music- The Beatles, Rolling Stones, James Taylor, Elton John, Doobie Brothers, Chicago, etc. I also am obsessed with Michael Buble and have seen him twice in concert. I am open to new music and like more alternative stuff.

I love books. I read mainly fiction, and I try to balance myself among contemporary and classic. Started getting into fantasy some. I really like short story compilations.
