Hello, I am a 20 year old male and am studying abroad in Florence Italy for the semester. My home University is Miami University in Oxford Ohio and I am studying Kinesiology before going to graduate school for Physical Therapy. I plan on backpacking Europe for 1 month with my friend after school ends and using the Eurail Pass. I am very passionate about traveling, learning about different cultures and lifestyles, and exchanging stories. I also love just about any sport especially soccer, running, swimming, and triathlons.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get a more real experience with meeting locals or people from different countries so that I can learn more about them and their country. I am also on a tight budget so it would make traveling a lot more doable and enjoyable for me if I was able to save money. I hope to be able to host people someday when I have a place of my own and am stationary in one area.
