CURRENT MISSION

I want to see many different parts of the world, meet lots of new people, and experience other cultures.

ABOUT ME

I took a year off between high school and college to live in Costa Rica and Germany and got to meet people from all over. After two years studying in the U.S., I studied abroad in Germany, then finished up college back in the U.S. Then I was in Germany as an English teaching assistant for a year and got to travel a lot. Now I live in DC and am a teaching fellow at an elementary school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in a tiny room in a group house, but I'd be happy to meet up and show people around!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with amazing people while travelling in Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Hungary. I've met new friends, been introduced to foods like Hagelslag and Speculoos, been given wonderful personal tours of cities, and gotten so many great tips about where to go and what to do. And I've cooked in many different kitchens!

Interests

I like to travel, read, learn languages, watch movies, listen to music, draw, cook (vegan food), bake, and do things with friends.
