Hey, roomie :)
I’m excited to finally meet you! I figured I’d go ahead and introduce myself so we can dive right in when we see each other.
The first thing you should know is that I have a maaajor sweet tooth, especially for ice cream. Teo’s gelato and Amy’s ice cream are weekly staples. Unfortunately, neither company operates in California, so we should definitely check out Salt & Straw or Tin Pot Creamery in Palo Alto together. In the meantime, I highly recommend trying any vanilla ice cream with peanut butter and Oreos—it’s a game changer.
Although I like cold desserts, I don’t enjoy being cold. Since I was born and raised in the Texas sun, I am often freezing unless the weather is above 90ºF; therefore, I’ll bring at least five of the blankets that I’ve knitted over the years. I actually have a new cashmere yarn I’ve been wanting to try out—I can totally knit you one!
I also love a wide variety of music, from Debussy to Daft Punk to Destiny’s Child. I’m really fond of mariachi music since I used to dance ballet folklórico as a kid. My favorite classic is Adelita. I've been playing the piano for fourteen years and have been experimenting with the drums for a couple of months now. Living in the Live Music Capital of the World, you can’t help but pick up a few instruments. I’m happy to play any and all song requests!
See you soon! Claudia
