About Me

Hey everyone! I just graduated from school in New York and I'm doing a ton of traveling (and research) this summer, in Morocco, Senegal, France, and Italy.

I love to travel, meet new people, eat good food, and listen to great music. I'm a curious and open person and have heard that CS is a great way to travel cheaply while also having amazing cultural experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travel, meet new people, and have new experiences. Traveling is best from a local's perspective! Good vibes and good food.

Interests

I studied francophone studies and human rights in college.
Am presenting on US foreign policy in Senegal and the way pressure to adhere to human rights norms is often used as a means for countries to receive aid.
Wine, cheese, and coffee enthusiast.
Love to sing and dance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I rock-climbed on a cliff in Dakar and traveled to Morocco on my own.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to sing and listen to musicians play, to talk about my studies and learn about others' studies, and compare politics in different countries. I also love to cook (and eat).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Can teach English, French, and basic Wolof, love to have singalongs, and love to learn about others life experiences.
