I'm a student from Brigham Young University graduating soon with a Bachelor's in Neuroscience and Linguistics. I'm just getting started with couchsurfing but I've traveled through university study abroad programs and on personal trips in Korea, Japan, and Ecuador.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think cultural exchange is one of the most rewarding, important things a person can experience. Traveling is a thousand times more meaningful when you get to know the people and culture from a local perspective! I'm hoping Couchsurfing will help me experience that!

Interests

My favorite thing to do is study languages. I speak Korean, and I've also studied Spanish, Quechua, Russian, and Latvian. I love nature, hiking, biking, and camping. I love anything to do with dance and storytelling. I enjoy writing stories and watching movies. And of course, I love all kinds of food!!
