I'm from Washington, D.C., but currently in Boston to study Applied Math at Harvard. I love learning and challenging myself, especially through trying new things. I'm laid-back and like to take my time when traveling/seeing new places, but I'm definitely a planner and organizer. I'm big into sports and a huge foodie. Eating and exercising are probably my two favorite pastimes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently based in Paris on a two month study abroad program. After it finishes in August I will be solo traveling for two weeks. Couchsurfing seems like the best way to travel, meet people, and learn about different cultures through the eyes of locals.
