ABOUT ME

Just finished up my undergrad at UNC Chapel Hill in German and I'm now setting out on an 11 week trip to the UK and all over Asia. I studied in Berlin for a semester and traveled doing the hostel thing, but friends have told me about their couchsurfing experiences and made me really jealous that I missed out. I'm hoping to correct that this time around! I love food and music, and am especially excited to see different styles of both when I travel.

PHILOSOPHY

Everyone's got something to give

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing, offering my advice, and opening my apartment when I return to the States in September

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed once through this website, but have tons of experience doing it with friends.

Interests

Food, cooking, eating, music, running, biking, yoga, drinking coffee or coconut water. Staying active and nourishing myself, and I especially enjoy doing these things with other people, it's always the best way to learn.

Music, Movies, and Books

Jeremih, Nicolas Jaar, Girl Unit,
Anything good to dance to, but a lot of hip-hop and r&b when I'm in the car.

Boogie Nights, Blade Runner, anything by Miyazaki or Almodovar. I also have a weakness for sci-fi

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting off a 10 hour bus ride from Berlin to Copenhagen at 6 in the morning and watching the sun rise

Teach, Learn, Share

I've started cooking a lot recently, and I think it's one of the best things to learn/teach while traveling because it varies so much from region to region
