Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I owe a massive couchsurfing debt, I have decided to open my doors and dust off my couch. A few grounds rules:

(1) women only!
(2) no more than 3 nights.
(3) have a profile with pictures and references
(4) contact me at least a week in advance, unless you're truly hardpressed.

I live in a studio apartment and I'm usually busy as a student, so I hope these rules make some sense. thanks!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Caving in Wales.

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied linguistics as an undergrad, so I would love to share or practice languages with you! I also once worked as a writing tutor and teaching assistant, so I can help you revise any of your papers or offer comments on that unpublished novel!

Another thing that I've grown to love and would like to share is my passion for cooking and baking! Dark chocolate mascarpone brownies are my specialty. (I am also a whizz at doing dishes and tidying up!)
