My name is Olivia! I'm 23 years old. I'm originally from Brooklyn, NY, but I have been living in CT for the past 15 years. I'm moving to Philadelphia in the beginning of March 2015, which I am very excited for!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Apartment hunting is hard when you're three states away, so this gives me a chance to get to know Philly a bit more, and to be able to visit places before blindly signing a lease.

Interests

I'm a math tutor, and have been for almost 6 years now, so math is a passion of mine. My life wouldn't be the same if I wasn't cooking and baking all the time. And I enjoy exploring, I just wish I had more opportunities to do it more often.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow, this is tough. I feel like the most amazing thing I'm ABOUT to do is throw caution to the wind and move to a brand new city. I feel like I haven't lived the life I want and this is the very first step. And it feels AH-MAY-ZING!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like baking! And cooking. Pretty much anything to do with food. And if you're in school and need help with your Algebra homework...I'm your gal ;)
