Hi,

My name is Julia, I'm finally fulfilling my dream of backpacking through Europe! I want to get to know as many cultures and cities as I can along my route, so if I can stay with anyone from this community and learn from them it will really make my trip perfect.

I haven't gotten to host anyone yet, but once I start grad school in Washington DC in the fall I'm looking forward to it!

Thank you for reading :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love classic rock, and my favorite movie ever is Life is Beautiful.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Set a Guinness World Record for longest rugby match (24 hours and 5 minutes)

- - - A British men's team beat it by an hour a few months later, not saying I'm going to Europe for vengeance, not saying I'm not ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you rugby, or how to make the perfect guacamole. If you think you make the perfect guacamole I am willing to compare.

I want to learn more about hosts' experiences and their local communities, and where the best food can be found. I am very into food.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Card games, conversation, respectfulness, fun, excellent stir fry
