Hey I'm Shannon! I attend Ohio State University in America but am currently on exchange at the University of Birmingham in the UK. I can't wait to travel all over Europe experiencing different cultures, food, and the beautiful sights. Outside of class I like to stay busy by Irish dancing, going to the gym, working for the Ohio State athletic department, watching movies/tv, crafts, and hanging out with friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just trying to see the world during my term abroad without breaking the bank

Interests

Movies and TV (The Office U.S., Game of Thrones, Girls, Gossip Girl, The Amazing Race, Chicago Fire, and Friends are some of my favorites) I love Irish dancing! Cooking/eating, watching all kinds of sports, and making decorations I see on pinterest

I don't read too often but my favorites are Harry Potter, Water for Elephants, books of quotes, Divergent, and more that I can't think of right now

What I Can Share with Hosts

I hope that my excitement to see their city reminds them of how much they love it. I'd love to explore the city with my host, talk about life and experience, watch a movie or some tv, cook something delicious, or make beautiful decorations.
