Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To make my self laugh at least once a day while learning about the wold and myself.
ABOUT ME
I'm a very curious and upbeat person. I love reading. I love music and will listen to any type even if I don't know the language being spoken.
I love to cook, I work at a bakery and last year I learned how to decorate cakes, which it one of the most fun things in the world.
I'm a chocoholic, currently looking for the best chocolate cake in Paris.
I'm jewish.
I like to travel but haven't had much of a chance yet I'm hoping to fix that.
PHILOSOPHY
When in doubt laugh, the world is a lot less fun if you take things too seriously and can never laugh at yourself your mistakes or the simple absurdity of situations, as well as the little things.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm new to the community, I'm excited to be able to host people when I get back to the states. Minneasota is lovely if you like snow in the winter, we have great lakes for the summer as well.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
not a ton experience, here and there crashing with friends. I'm a very good and conscious guest, friends have commented on how neat I've left things. I also like to cook for my hosts or something if I have the chance.
Interests
Reading, Music, Movies, Travel, Stories other people tell about their travels I can listen to those(and have) for hours. I like to swim. Back home I babysit a boy named Gabrielle and he is amazing, I love children, he has a new baby sister, I will be living with the family over the summer in exchange for babysitting.
I'm studying economics in school and I could talk to you for hours about economics. I was really involved with the Youth voter registration for the 2008 election.
I love languages, I'm a little slow to pick them up but I hope to be multilingual, I'm currently working on French.
