Hello! I am a recent graduate with a degree in Japanese and anthropology. I am hoping to do some traveling before I settle down for work at the end of this summer. I love traveling to new places and learning more about the local culture,especially the food! In my free time I try to go for hikes or do whatever can to enjoy some time in nature ! I also love learning about all sorts of new topics that I know little about, whether it's about horticulture or psychology I am always eager to learn new things from the people I meet!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and experience their city from a local point of view! I love traveling and seeing new places, especially visiting places that were recommended to me by someone who is intimately familiar with the area
