About Me

Hello there. I have always wanted to travel and learn about all the different cultures in the world. My first time abroad was to Rwanda, Africa where I helped map a refugee camp. I loved experiencing the African culture. I am currently studying Electrical Engineering in western New York, with a focus on clean and renewable energy. I want to learn how other countries are helping the environment and decreasing fossil fuel emissions. I decided to go vegetarian in order to pursue a more sustainable lifestyle. I play the ukulele and enjoy running, when I need a break from studying. I run the archery club at my school, and I am on the all female formula team. I love hiking and camping, and wish to get more experience backpacking. If there is a nice tree by a lake you will most likely find me climbing it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing allows a traveler to be immediately immersed into the culture by entering someone's house in that country. It also allows you to have someone to talk to when entering a new country.
