Hello! My name is Adaline, and I am an American student currently living in Norway while pursuing an MSc in Public Health. I aim to invest in what is meaningful, seek connection with others, and learn about myself and the world around me. Nothing makes me happier than enjoying the beauty of my environment (natural or otherwise) in good company - and ideally over a nice cup of coffee or a glass of wine. :) Ultimately, I am all about living frugally and flexibly while maximizing opportunities for growth and learning.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I have a strong desire to make the most of my two years spent studying here in Europe, but I believe that the most formative experiences take place outside of the classroom. I am interested in learning about different places and cultures through the people who know them best!

教，学，和分享

TEACH: I have experience teaching introductory epidemiology and biostatistics - but less formally, I'm willing to pass on whatever experience/knowledge I have that could be of interest to you.

LEARN: I am interested in learning about ideas and ways of life that may differ from my own. What makes where you live so special and unique?

SHARE: I would love to share my love of nature, food, and music with you :)

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Good conversation, a positive attitude, and a desire for new experiences. Also, a million mediocre ways to combine the same 3-5 ingredients. ;)
