I'm a recently graduated Art Major who's looking to travel around before I settle into adulthood. This past year, I returned to college to audit Japanese and it was great, but I want to be more immersed in the language and culture. I can be a bit introverted, but I really enjoy meeting new people and sharing my creations with them. In need of people and things that leave me in awe and make me want to fully experience them.
Interested in Art
Interested in Cooking
Fluent in English
Learning Japanese
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I was introduced to couch surfing when I met the art building in college, who needs a dorm when there's art to be made? Looking for friends for cultural exchange and new experiences outside of my comfort zone

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Art Studio Adventures Season 5, Episode 26: I saved my friend from being stuck in a mold of his torso after the alginate had set. It wasn't a complete disaster, but there was some minor bruising Dreams Season 21, Episodes 20&23: I had a dream about getting a fellowship for the arts. A few weeks later during a scavenger hunt for class, I received the email saying that I had won. Screaming and joyous laughter ensued
