CURRENT MISSION To spelunk Europe's cities! ABOUT ME I am currently doing a semester abroad at the University of Nottingham and am itching to traverse Europe's many landscapes and frolic through its lush fields. Otherwise, I am a psychology student at Reed College in lovely Portland, Oregon. I want to be Clarice Starling from The Silence of the Lambs when I grow up (except for the whole FBI part). PHILOSOPHY Be nice. Don't panic.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
