I'm a 22-year-old history student at Harvard University, though I'm originally from Arizona. I can't think off the top of my head what I geek out for, but I have the capacity for it. I really enjoy traveling and meeting new people in the places I visit. I can talk my head off about a lot of things, and I love to sit around and have conversations with the people that I meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to explore communities and places and interact with new people who live there! I really like wandering around on foot in the places I visit, but sometimes that doesn't help all that much because I don't have any local perspective. At night I love to bar hop and drink beer with groups of friends, but also I love to dance and go to clubs.

Interests

Sending and collecting postcards, writing, reading (short stories are my favorite), Ezra Koenig, café au lait, urban hiking, burritos, the Fenway Victory Gardens, tacos de bistec, phô and decolonization.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm very interested in languages and I'm always trying to improve my fluency in Portuguese and Spanish. I love to talk about the cultures that we come from and just to hear people's stories. I'm a good listener--I'm a Taurus.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I bring with me a lot of positive vibes, and though I tend to be shy at first (anxiety), I'm friendly and talkative and always down for food and going out.
