Overview
About Me
I’m a travel lover who is from California, goes to school in Philadelphia, here all over Europe for a few months backpacking with my best friend and we’re just trying to soak up every bit of culture and priceless experiences as humanly possible! I’m an advocate for women’s rights, LGBTQ equality, learning about other countries and their politics, overall very globally immersed and fascinated by all kinds of cultures, languages, and things related to social justice (but if you’re not as interested in that as much, don’t worry I won’t bore you😂)
I’ve been doing theatre and writing since very small, I actually published a book recently and dream to travel the world and write, starting as a tumbleweed at Shakespeare and Company in Paris (within the next year, hopefully!!) Overall, I’d like to think I’m a kind, passionate and driven person and love to meet others.
******I have actually couchsurfed with two individuals here so far, but because it was through my friend’s account, the reviews aren’t on my profile, but I’d like to think I was a respectful, clean, and engaged guest 😂

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: my favorites are rock & roll, indie and alternative, and rap! I can get down to The Black Keys and Catfish and the Bottleman to Mitski and Mac Demarco to A$AP Rocky and Travis Scott! Have many cool concert experiences and I take pride in my skills of crashing concerts and making my way up front, I can teach you some tips about scheming!!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Stayed in a small village in Adana, Turkey and lived like a local and true villager- no wifi, no electricity, nor any connection with the outside world for a month and instead focusing on the beautiful nature, picking/making my own food from the organic gardens, feeding farm animals and washing and drying clothes by hand (lol which is a big thing for me because I’m in love with washers and dryers)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share my own life experiences with you and hear all about yours! Bonding over culture and differences is pretty amazing in my opinion.
What I Can Share with Hosts
My own culture and experiences both travel abroad and in America, cleanliness to ensure I’m respecting a host’s space and home, my respect and kindness and fun conversation!!!
