I am an American who's looking to grow culturally, learn new languages, and meet different types of people. I am just graduating with my bachelor's and am looking to travel before I attend graduate school. I have many interests (and a very much non-extensive list below) so I'm sure that if we both looked, we'd find one in common!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going to visit Japan in a few months and I would like to find a few places to stay while I'm there and get to know new people and learn new things. I would also like to establish myself for future travels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just finished a semester of 21 upper-division credits and didn't die!

Teach, Learn, Share

While I am not able to host anyone at the moment since I will not have a permanent residence for the next few of months, I would like to share a little bit of my surrounding culture and try to impart to you what it is like to live and grow up here. If desired, I can take you all over and show you what makes this place special.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think what I am most able to offer, beyond the essentials of cultural and language exchange, are interesting (at least to me) conversations. I am fascinated by other people's experiences and ideas and while I might not always agree, I always learn something. I believe that by being open, we can increase our quality of life.

Countries I’ve Visited
