CURRENT MISSION

Familiarize myself with America and its people

ABOUT ME

I am a rising senior at Harvard, as well as an extrovert who loves to meet new people and learn about different cultures. I study history at school, and I'm especially interested in the history of industrialization. I'm currently on a road trip form Boston to Yellowstone, and I am so excited to see different parts of America. I think I live in a beautiful country, and I want to get to know it better.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe there is no greater joy on this Earth than friendship. Also, I believe that anything worth doing is worth the effort it takes to accomplish it.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This road trip is my first experience using couchsurfing, and I plan to use it as a way to really get to know the places I'm visiting. I haven't stayed with anyone yet, but I can't wait to meet people. I have heard so many wonderful things about couchsurfing. I want to try it for myself!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't surfed anyone's couch yet, but I hope that by the end of my 21 day journey, I will have many couchsurfing experiences to share!

Centres d'intérêt

I love history, music (especially Wilco), politics, and learning. I'm never happier than when I'm making friends and hanging out.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Last summer when I was working at a tech company in Paris, I hitch-hiked from Paris to Lorient in Brittany, and spent four gut-wrenching hours in the Paris catacombs.
