Hi! I'm a student at Grinnell College, where I'm majoring in Gender Studies and minoring in Computer Science. When traveling, I enjoy walking through town, seeing historical landmarks, meeting new people, and enjoying nature. I'm fluent in both English and Spanish, and I like to consider myself a friendly, polite, and flexible guest :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m traveling to Malta soon and would like a place to stay so that I can save some money and meet new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: indie, country & folk, classic rock, musicals... pretty much anything. Favorite artists include Sara Bareilles, the Indigo Girls, and Cloud Cult.

Movies: rom-coms, comedies, documentaries, whatever strikes my fancy at any given moment

Books: mostly nonfiction, lots of autobiographies.

I also really enjoy watching (most) standup comedy

Teach, Learn, Share

Mostly I just like to learn more about the places I’m staying, and if you have any stories, I’d love to hear those too.

Ask me about American politics (I worked for the Pete Buttigieg campaign!), Feminism, and LGBT issues.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good humor, a sense of adventure, and hopefully a renewed sense of awe: I believe that going around with tourists from time to time can help locals see their town with fresh eyes. 😁
