ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm an introverted lover of the city, and love to travel, though I have not been doing as much travelling the past 2 years. Hoping to change that.

I love to go off the beaten path in my travels, and have done a lot of solo travel in Europe, when I spent two semesters studying abroad. My most vivid memory of my study abroad adventures would have to be when I was in Barcelona and spent all of my time eating food at the Boqueria and exploring the beautiful sights and art of the city.

I've been living in NYC for almost 2 years now (6 years if you include my 4 years of college in NYC), but I'm originally from Massachusetts. My family is still based in Massachusetts, but I see them at least once a month--we love to find excuses to come visit each other. I love my family, friends, and my 5 month old puppy, Chester.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and I love to meet new people.
