I'm a 24 year old American who just finished with university, where I got degrees in both Art History and French. I am most passionate about traveling and art - my favorite thing is when I can combine the two. I have made it a goal of mine to see each famous piece of art that I love in person, so I love traveling places with great museums and galleries.

I am moving to Nice, France in August to start a year as an au pair, and hope to travel as much as I can while I'm in Europe.

I previously lived in Paris in 2010/2011, and hold the city near and dear to my heart.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel in a way that allows me to make
connections with people rather than just being anonymous at a hostel.

Interests

Reading, art history/art museums, and food!

Music, Movies, and Books

Film wise, my favorites are: anything by Wes Anderson, but especially Royal Tenenbaums, Les 400 coups, À bout de souffle (I aspire to be Jean Seberg,) Lost in Translation, and silly romcoms like Bridget Jones' Diary and Love Actually.

Books are everything. I will always love classics, Jane Eyre, John Steinbeck, J. D. Salinger, etc, but am currently devouring everything I can by Haruki Murakami.
