William Blake Maynard.
I'm a linguistics major at UT Austin! I'm currently researching pronouns in LIBRAS(Brazilian Sign Language) and Portuguese. I work at a local açaí cafe here in Austin, Texas. I love fitness, going out, having a coffee, meeting new people, reading, dancing, and in general: trying new things. Some things I've been wanting to try/do more of lately: 1. rock-climbing/bouldering 2. different yoga/fitness classes 3. hiking. 4. meditation

I'll be studying Czech in Pilsen for 3 weeks in July and then another 3 weeks in Prague this summer. I'd love any Europe/Czech Republic recommendations! I'm also down to meet up! Shoot me a message.

I was a Rotary Youth Exchange student to Ilheus, Bahia in Brazil 2017-2018.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I want to find more outgoing and interactive means of traveling, as well as wholesome and sustainable(for my wallet as well as the earth). I've had great experiences on Couchsurfing. Automatic friends? We all have a lot to gain and offer simultaneously!

If anyone is visiting Austin, I would love to get in contact!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can share tons of fitness and nutrition tips. I've lost a total of 55 pounds, and am currently working on expanding my knowledge of healthy eating, wellness, and overall health.

My best languages are Portuguese and English, and I'd love to offer either/or for practice!

A friend! I like to go out for a drink, have fun.
