I am a freshman at St. Louis University studying Accounting/International Business and minoring in Chinese. I play club soccer and rock climb on the side.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couch Surfing is much more interesting way to travel, allowing me to meet new people and making the travelling experience as a whole much more fulfilling. Not to mention its a lot cheaper!

Interests

I have recently taken up rock climbing and have fallen in love with it. I'm trying to get more into backpacking and hiking. Other than that I love soccer, playing and watching, and I am big into my faith (Roman Catholic).

Music, Movies, and Books

I am really into the folk/indie/alternative genres and am always trying to find new artists. Right now I am listening to a lot of The Head and the Heart, City and Colour, Imagine Dragons, Of Monsters and Men, and other similar artists.

My all-time favorite movie series is How To Train Your Dragon. I know its childish but they are great movies. Other than that I resign myself to scouring the depths of Netflix for dumb and fun movies.

I will read almost any book I am given, as long as it isn't boring. Recently I've read The Revenant and 13 Hours in Benghazi because I want to have read them before I watch the movies.
