Info
Jessica Dodson – female, dob: 17 Sep 1985.
I do have any dietary needs, but I really dislike Italian food. I am an only child and for the majority of my life have lived with both parents. I have grown up around animals, not several animals, but usually one cat and one dog have been in the house. Both of my parents have worked by entire life and I have had to work as well to have any extra things, such as a car or cell phone. I am very independent. I do not need constant attention and am used to having my own room. I enjoy my alone time
Paul Grutzmacher – male, dob: 1 May 1987.
I like cats, but any pets at all are okay. My hobbies are games (electronic and otherwise), computers, and reading. My interests are many and varied, some are: history, physics, chemistry, movies, music, linguistics, comic books, philosophy, politics, and many other things. I try to be interested in at least a little of everything. I have a younger sister who is graduating from high school. My mother is a nurse, and my father is a supervisor for a local machine manufacturer.
Kayla Kurrle – female, dob: 11 Jul 1988.
I like everything. I am not picky at all. I own a cat and a dog. I am interested in athletics and the culture. I like games and to be active. I want to get those dolls that fit inside one another that Russia is known for. I have one younger brother and my parents. I do not have a large family at all because I have no cousins and rarely see my grandparents. I am not real shy. I like to have conversations and I am excited to learn anything they are willing to teach me. I do not know any of the Russian language.
Jeremy Braithwaite – male, dob: 18 Aug 1984.
I don’t eat ham, pork, or pig of any sort. I love dogs and cats — any animals. I enjoy taking walks (especially with pets), going out to restaurants, casinos, bars, etc. I also love watching sitcoms and scary movies and listening to many different kinds of music. I come from a large family (8 kids), so I am used to being around a lot of people. I love being around pets and animals of all kinds, too. I stay up late a lot and enjoy sleeping in.
