I recently graduated from university and I am currently working as an au pair for a German family in Berlin. I am an avid history nerd, vegetarian foodie, hiker, coffee-addict, museum-lover, and bookworm.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While I am living and traveling in Europe, I am hoping to connect with as many new people and learn as many languages as possible. Couchsurfing seems like the perfect opportunity to meet interesting people and learn from them.
