ABOUT ME

I am completely open to almost anything and am not easily offended. Laughing is my favorite form of exercise after just plain old walking. And dancing. I love dancing. I mostly enjoy activities that allow for conversation.

Yo soy complemente abierto de casi todo y no soy facilamente ofendida. La risa es mi forma favorito de ejercicio despues de caminar. Y el baile. Amo bailar. Principalmente disfruto las actividades que permitán la conversacion.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have yet to surf someone's couch but thanks to CS I made some incredible friends in Mérida that otherwise I may have never had the chance to meet.

Update: I have hosted and surfed couches! Half of my summer (2012) was spent surfing couches along Scandinavia and Northern Europe. I actually drew a drawing for every host that I stayed with.

Todavía no he "surfed" pero gracias a Couch, conocí unos amigos increíbles en Mérida que normalmente no podría he tenido el placer a conocer.

Music, Movies, and Books

I´m a big HP fan but other than that I just read whatever is lying around. I also love anything from Augusten Burroughs.

Amelie. Teeth. Love Actually. Hors de prix. Never on a Sunday. Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy.

And music.... Metronomy, Dominant Legs, M83, Fleet Foxes, Fiest, Beach House, First Aid Kit, She and Him, tilly and the wall, Mariah Carey, Madonna.
But really, I enjoy a little bit of everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stayed in an indigenous village once in the amazon with my sister and aunt. It was the most beautiful view I have ever seen. I played with the local children, bathed in the river, and even climbed a mountain!

More recently I hung out in the Andes and even got lost on foot in fog and misty rain on a mountain side.

And as far as here at home I have hosted a pre-halloween parade zombie-making party on my front porch; driven to Jena, LA for an anti-kkk rally with some communist friends; braved the Wild Animal Safari drive-thru in Pine Mountain, GA; and even helped host an easter-egg-jelloshot hunt.

Update: I may have left my heart somewhere in Scandinavia. I remember it swelling at the sights of mountains and fjords in Iceland, and racing while riding on the back of a bicycle in Copenhagen. Or maybe its still in the window seat of some train somewhere in the rolling Swedish countryside.

Teach, Learn, Share

relax, laugh, find the silver lining because things could always be worse.

It's silly but the first phrase I learn in any language is "I love my little dog." I know it in Russian, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Mandarin, and Swedish.
