Hi! I'm a college student, studying political science, but I am also interested in history and art. Most of my traveling stems from fascination in historical culture and interest in trying new foods. When I'm not traveling, I like to curl up to a good book, buried in warm blankets, with a cup of hot chocolate.

While I do enjoy meeting new people, I tend to be a reserved person, keeping maybe one or two friends for company. I treasure these friends greatly, and prefer friendships that offer a positive and deeper insight to life.

I played football growing up, and it is a fun past time, kicking the ball around. In college, I picked up taekwondo and entered a few tournaments. I love to climb and run so rock-climbing and hiking fans are my instant friends!

My summer job was being a hostess for a fresh and healthy-driven restaurant back in California! I got to talk to all sorts of people from near and far. I hope to carry on the tradition of passing on shared experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and experience culture through the eyes of locals and the kind hosts.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm open to listening to each person's musical tastes, as I'm always developing my own playlist. My reading falls under classic British literature, including stories from esteemed authors Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens, and Agatha Christie. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is also a favorite of mine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While studying in England one summer, my friend invited me to Paris for the weekend and we traveled all over the city nonstop from 8 a.m. to 3 a.m. the next day! We only stopped for lunch and dinner. Delicious food!

Teach, Learn, Share

Please talk to me about art and history if you love it too! I'm particularly interested in the Latin America, Italian Renaissance and World War II art and history.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have fun stories to share! I've traveled to many places in the United States and have a few stories about my travels in Europe. I look forward to adding to the stories.

As for cooking... I'm so sorry! I cannot cook for the life of me, but I am willing to watch and learn, if you're patient enough to teach. I will help around the flat as much as I can.
