I'm a 20 year old University student in the US studying international business and trying to become trilingual. I study in the US but am currently living in Beijing learning Chinese. I love being outside and spend what little extra money I have traveling and food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love learning about other cultures and getting to meet new people!

Interests

I would have to say my favorite thing to do is eat food. I started cooking very young and enjoy all the different flavors and types of food from around the world because of this. I like to think there is no food I wouldn't try and am willing to have you test me on this! I love a good beer and like to try whatever the local favorite is whenever I'm in a new place. Hiking is one of my favorite activities and I try to do at least one hike in every country I visit.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camping on the Great Wall with absolutely no one else around.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching people how to make an American food or dessert. My specialities are tacos, cookies, and southern style biscuits. I'm always eager to learn about other cultures especially if it's food culture! And enjoy any opportunity to practice a language I'm learning or learn some of a new one.
