I am 21 years old and studying German Education and International Studies in Wisconsin. I am currently finishing my semester abroad in Marburg, Germany. It has been an amazing experience with plenty of stories to share. I am the eldest of five children and love taking care of and teaching kids. Also, that has taught me how to be resourceful, frugal, and patient. I'm honest to a fault, enjoy cursing like a sailor, and laughing loudly whenever I can.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love the people I meet! Getting to know them and their cultures first hand isn't an experience you can pay for. I learn more about cities than I ever would have on my own and I create strong friendships in the process. Alternatively, should I host someone, I'd grant the same favors to those discovering my city.

Música, películas y libros

I love all sorts of music. Classic rock, glam rock from the 80s, indie, pop, folk, alternative, and the oldies. My favorite artists are Regina Spektor and Frankie Vallie & the Four Seasons.

My favorite movies are tied between The Fifth Element and The Princess Bride. I can entirely quote both films. I will watch nearly any movie. Name a Hollywood film and chances are I've seen it. I have worked for a cinema company the past 5 years.

My favorite book(s) are written by Miyamoto Kano. I have a tattoo from her book "Lovers and Souls".

Algo increíble que he hecho

A few years ago I went to Arizona to visit my sister. While we were there we stopped in Sedona to Slide Rock (a natural water slide) and at the end of the slide were cliffs and deep pools which you could jump off of into the water. I jumped off the higher 40ft one, received a bloody nose and then did it again!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you how to speak like a Midwestener, make a "toad in the well" or how to make a turkey sound.

I can share my expansive superhero knowledge with you as well as the hundreds of movies I've seen. I'll gladly share some home-cooked American cuisine with you too!

I'd like to learn 1 handy phrase and 1 absurd phrase in the language of every country I visit.
