About Me

Im open minded, love to discuss global affairs and hear diverse perspectives, love jamming with musicians, relaxing and also hiking or biking long distances. I recently finished an undergraduate degree in geography and environmental studies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet locals, practice different languages, and be less of a tourist
