I’m a recent graduate from Columbia University in the City of NYC. I studied information sciences and German literature and cultural history, and I worked part time as a research assistant for professors in fields varying from folklore research to medical anthropology. I love getting to know more about a place and it’s people - and I usually find a certain beauty in what most would call the domestic and mundane. I’m from a large family, so I’m used to cooking and cleaning for myself- and enjoy preparing a nice dinner with company.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I want to spend more time getting to know more people and building more relationships and seeing more of the world and to get a glimpse on what it may look like from another person’s perspective.
