This week I have the pleasure of introducing you to Kevin! After getting to know him through the Brazilian Club and the International Assistant program, I just couldn’t miss out on sharing a little bit more about this globetrotter with you all. If you see him around campus make sure to say hello!

Biggest Pet Peeve: Slow walkers that take up the whole sidewalk when you’re rushing to get somewhere
Most Embarrassing Moment: I was at Stuart trying to order eggs but I wasn’t sure of how to do it in English so I asked my friend how to do it in America, he told me to order a “moon side up,” and I did. I thought that was actually a thing so I kept repeating that I wanted my eggs “moon side up” and everyone in line just started laughing at me.

Ideal Girl: She has to be at least 5’5″, brunette, green/blue eyes, no glasses, loving football (soccer) is a MUST. But actually, I’m just kidding. I’ve lived in so many places and women everywhere are beautiful. Loving football (soccer) is the only true must.
Ideal Date: Flying out to the island of Fiji and spending the whole weekend there.
Funny date stories: We were grabbing dinner at a beach bar and we ending up “swimming” in the ocean at 3am

Advice to Freshmen: Take advantage of the Kerry Cronin date project to ask out as many girls as you can. Gotta have options.
