Hello world! My name is Bitty and I love music, theater, and traveling with all my heart! I am currently a senior at Spring Arbor University in Michigan. I love opening my mind to different ideas, cultures, and types of people and can get along with pretty much anyone!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I strive to become a better global citizen and I believe to stay and live in a culture helps me understand so much more than staying in a hotel. Plus I love meeting new people and making friends. :) I am not about taking things and people for granted and I believe a host guest should mutually benefit from a visit.

Interests

I am about to earn my degree in music and theater from a liberal arts university. I would like nothing more than to create and experience the making of art for a living. My favorite show I have done so far is Godspell by Stephen Schwatrz.

Music, Movies, and Books

You can probably guess my favorite kind of music- Broadway/West End! But I like most and can appreciate all genres and forms. Among my favorite show soundtracks are:
Les Miserables
Wicked
Hamilton
Dog Fight
Pippin
Spring Awakening

just to name a few.

I am also a big movie fan but I don't have a ton of time to keep up on the latest movies because I work so much. A few I like are"
Singing in the Rain
The Revenant
Pride and Prejudice
Suffragette

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One totally random crazy thing I've done was win a talent contest in Hyderabad, India for rapping a song from Lin-Manuel Miranda's "Hamilton." I am a short, white, music theater soprano.

Teach, Learn, Share

The more I travel and meet all different kinds of people from all over, the more I see that no matter how differently we do things, we all want the same things out of life. We don't need to be scared of people because we don't understand their practices. Be excited that you found something new to learn about!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a great enthusiasm for learning about their culture, a flexible lifestyle, and hopefully some fun times and a few laughs! I would love to help out in any way I can whether that's helping around the house, grocery shopping, running errand, babysitting, you name it! With me also comes my fairly extensive knowledge of Broadway shows and actors. I bring and energy and passion for life that I love to share with people and an open mind that's always looking for new ideas!
