I'm a very cheery and friendly person! My friends would describe me as welcoming and warm, but I would like to think that I'm also funny. I went to UC Santa Cruz, majored in Language Studies with my concentration in French. I am very interested in languages and believe that a language has more than a linguistic component to it. It is part of a culture as well as a persons identity.

Did you know the average person laughs fifteen times per day?

I enjoy cooking and baking so I can teach you some delicious dishes if we have time! If you're 21 we can go to some bars downtown.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

Right now you would have to sleep in my room on my floor. I have a sleeping bag I can let you borrow for the night if you don't have any sleeping materials. I don't have extra keys to my place and I usually don't have a set schedule except for when I have work so you'd have to leave my place when I leave.
