About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience new cultures and cuisines first-hand by meeting interesting people.

ABOUT ME

I love to cook, read, and travel. I enjoy experiencing new things and meeting new people. Though I am sort of shy, I am trying to get out of that by putting myself out there. I'm never happier than when I'm traveling. I enjoy reading, listening to podcasts, going on adventures, planning parties and events, and collecting vintage memorabilia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have chatted with a few people, and traveled to NY and Couchsurfed there. I'd also like to eventually host people when I have my own place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Went to Buffalo, NY, and met some really cool people. Honestly, I couldn't ever see myself doing something like that without the aid of Couchsurfing, as it made that experience truly unique.

Interests

I love to read, and I find myths especially interesting. Other cultures fascinate me as well. I'm obsessed with 1950s-1960s fashion. Harry Potter is a huge part of who I am; so much so that I planned an entire trip to England based around it. I love browsing antique stores. Oh, and I'm a bit of a nerd.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook, and I love to bake. Please teach me your culinary ways for whatever you enjoy eating.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to explore! I am incredibly open to new experiences, and there are little to no things I wouldn't try at least once. Basically, I'm completely at your mercy for adventuring.
