My life is an oxymoron; I love food, but I'm allergic to almost all of it. When not scouring food labels for my personal pathogens, I can be found in Band-related activities, baking granola, nose-deep in a good book, or teaching yoga and aerial arts (with a bit of contortion on the side).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here because I'm a college student traveling on a budget with a passion for meeting people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have played French horn for 10 years and have dabbled with mellophone and trumpet. Otherwise I enjoy "upbeat folk" according to Spotify--but that doesn't mean Sia and show tunes aren't regularly digested.

I absolutely adore Avatar the Last Airbender, Game of Thrones, and a few anime series (Full Metal Alchemist, One Punch Man, From the New World, Fairy Tail, Fate/Stay Unlimited Bladeworks, etc).

Speaking of Game of Thrones, I read it before I watched it. High fantasy is my go-to guilty read (currently devouring a trashy series called The Black Mage), but I enjoy some more literary pieces as well (Toni Morrison, Kafka, an a smattering of other authors).

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to make killer granola, increase flexibility, and to do a handstand!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd be happy to share meals, tales of my travels (especially a cab driver in Brussels--he was unique), yoga and circus skills, as well as laughter and conversations.
