About Me

I'm very curious and I tend to love everything. If you need someone to hang out with in Chicago, id be glad to show you around! Chicago is not all big city and fast living, some of us have regular lives and I'd love for you to see that too.
I really love art and poetry and the places I visit and the people I meet inspire me. I'm always learning a new language and I'm currently working on Spanish. I'm a college student and I work a lot so when I get to travel I am happiest. I'm just starting off with Couchsurfing and hope to meet some amazing people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet new people and make new friends!
I'm traveling again for the first time in a year and my friend recommended Couchsurfing. I'd be afraid to do it before but seeing all these wonderful experiences people have had and the ones my friends have had inspired me to jump in. I'm excited to meet a plethora of different people and their culture and language.

Interests

I really love a lot of things, I'm very spontaneous with my hobbies and I'm always trying something new. If I'm home I will usually paint, write or read while jamming to some music. I have a very eclectic style of music as I tend to love the vibes and flow of a song. If I'm out it's usually with friends or I will be in the city trying to find more hidden crevices. I like to walk around different towns and places I;m in to see the things I wouldn't normally in my everyday.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a very eclectic music style, I really like foreign music. It goes along with the fact that all of my friends are foreigners and introduce new stuff to me every day. I don't watch a ton of films but when I do, they're mostly horror. I really like to go the movies and see the new ones that are out. Classic's are some of my favorites next to horror films. My favorite book is Wicked, I saw the musical and I LOVED IT! It was absolutely wonderful and just moved me so much. My parents say I have to many books but I don't have enough.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Became a poet.
I love writing poetry, it's my passion, my life, and my love. Writing is something that I can do when I feel any type of emotion or feeling. I write about the places I've been the people I've met and the thing's I've learned. If something has happened to me, whether it be big or small, I write about it. To save that moment forever in my own words.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to cook traditional foods from Italy, Chicago or any Hispanic cuisines. I also know Italian and American Sign Language so I'd be more than happy to share that with you. If you're interested in poetry, I will be more than glad to help you write or even collaborate a piece
I would love to learn more languages and more foreign foods. I love cooking but I am so limited in my palette. Anything you can share with me whether it be traditions or languages or foods, I will learn it!
Let me share my views with you, the things I've learned and my perspective. I love having long conversations about any topic with others, I love taking in new thoughts and views. I'm always sharing the things I know in hopes to learn something new.
