I partly grew up in Los Angeles before moving to a small town in Maine at age six. I moved back to California at 10, this time to Orange County, and then back to L.A. at 11. I am a very happy person who loves random things, including TRAVELING! I was a ballet dancer from 6-15 but decided to stop in order to pursue acting. I am very spontaneous and adventurous, and I want to see as much as I can in my time here as possible. I am up for a 1am walk through Barcelona's streets for a stop at the Gelato shop or a 6am run through the rice fields. I am an artist (more forms than just painting) and a dancer. I am a new vegan. I love people from all walks of life and I would love to come meet you, or have you come meet me. I am learning french and hope to become fluent someday. I (sometimes) have been known to make people laugh. I am very good with kids, having had a brother born when I was 13. With my mom being a single mom, I helped to raise him, and am a very trusted babysitter. I love the rain. I seriously love it. Hot, cold, tropical, anything! You will definitely get to know me more if you host me :)

Musica, film e libri

I love old pop-culture from the 20s all the way to the 90s. Movies: Grease, Romancing the Stone, Edward Scissorhands, Raising Arizona, Thelma and Louise, Pulp Fiction, etc. Directors: Quentin Tarantino, Sofia Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Steven Speilberg, The Cohan Brothers, etc. Music: Led Zeppelin, The Runaways, Steve Miller Band, Frank Sinatra, Elvis, etc. When it comes to books I will always love kid books such as: Harry Potter, Goosebumps, Twilight, A Drowned Maiden's Hair, Nancy Drew, Kitty Kitty, (love detective and mystery books!) I have a very diverse taste in movies and music, and I could share some of this with my potential host.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I drove with my mom and sister from Maine to California in the U.S. three times, allowing me to see more than half of the states. I was also accepted to the Joffrey Ballet School in New York City year-round. I danced en pointe for 5 years. A ballet I was in had giant metal toadstools and flowers big enough to sit on.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I can teach you how to knit. I can teach you how to sew. I can teach you how to mix paint. I can tell you about my knowledge on movies from the 50s to the 90s, as my sister filled my ear with lots of knowledge on this subject growing up. She loves old movies. I can teach you a ballet class, as I have taught 6 week ballet camps to ballet students through my old ballet school. I can sing with you! (I am taking voice lessons) I can teach you to ride a bike. I can teach you how to talk in an Australian accent. (Warning I'm not from there but people have told me I could be). I can teach you how to bike in the rain while balancing an umbrella in one hand. I can teach you how to go out in the rain with no umbrella and embrace the falling water. I can teach you anything you ask as long as I know how!

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I can share stories about me growing up in Los Angeles versus a small town in Maine. I lived on a house with 2 acres, 7 apple trees, 2 hammocks, 1 barn, 1 pond, 1 questionable attic and lot's and lots of snow. I can share any of my skills with you. And most of all I can share my happiness, my love for the world, it's people and LIFE itself!
