I've lived in South Carolina, US for most of my life, but I also got the chance to live in Freising, Germany for a year (3 years old at the time) and Toulouse, France for 2 months (11 years old). I love experiencing new cultures and meeting new people from various parts of the world. I'm going to start studying abroad in Bamberg, Germany this fall which is very exciting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a lot of friends who have traveled around in Europe and they have all recommended this. It's a great way to meet people and learn from them. I much prefer the shared experiences from living with locals than what I would get out of staying in a hotel.

Interests

Watching soccer (sorry, football), movies, food (especially trying new ones), beer, playing the drums.
