Hi there! I am an American currently traveling in Europe, excited about visiting new places and meeting new people. I am new to this community but excited to join!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel, experience and learn about other cultures, and would love to work on my Spanish. I believe there is something to learn from everyone, and I love the idea of getting to know the places I travel to in an authentic way.

I have been vegan/vegetarian for some parts of my life, and would be happy and willing to chat about that lifestyle! I am not strict about this while traveling, however.

Interests

I am interested in rock climbing, mountaineering, human rights, backpacking, swimming. I am an International Studies major focusing on environmental policy.
