I am a newly graduated industrial design student traveling this summer in Europe. I love to learn new languages, meet new people, see music, and find the everyday beauty in cultures mostly from wandering the streets and taking random turns.

I like to criticize goverment and brainsorm potential solutions to many of humanity's and society's problems.. I also love discussing art and literature and film. I like to get deep into a conversation and learn who people are deep down.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet friendly people and get a local's perspective on the places that I am visiting. I hope to make lasting connections and invite anyone to come visit me in the US when I am home!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music but mostly indie rock, old school hip hop, jazz..

I love all films Wes Anderson, enjoy foreign films and disorienting artistic films as well. Not quite a movie buff but i prefer movies that make you think. And documentaries.

My favorite all-time book is Siddhartha by Herman Hesse but love too many books to name.
