I'm a 3rd year student at the University of Minnesota and currently a political science student at Háskóli Íslands in Reykjavík. I like getting lost in new places and am always up for spontaneous adventures!
I love rock climbing, being outside, hugs, cooking with friends, the silence when it snows, live music, laughing, and cats.

Disclaimer: I sometimes make really bad puns

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet some really great people from new places, share stories and perspectives, find new music, get lost, and have fun :)
