I am in my final year of school at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts. I have lived in the USA all my life, and have had the opportunity to travel to places for school and for pleasure that have been exciting and rewarding. I study Economics and Political Science, with an interest in urban design and public spaces like parks, libraries, and festivals open to everyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always been a person who gets energy from meeting and connecting with others, and Couchsurfing felt like a great way to do this. I think I am able to match a person's energy, and I am always excited to listen and learn from others, as well as share whatever I can about my life experiences that people find interesting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am happy to share everything I've learned from others with hosts and the things I am passionate about. I am a very observant person, and as a result, I am constantly reflecting on my own experiences and what I see around me both at home in the US and all the places I've been. If hosts are interested, I'd love to tell them all about it :)
