Hi! My name is Jia Lu (pronounced jay-loo). I am a student at the University of Cincinnati with a passion for good coffee, delicious food, and new experiences. I love to have a good time and am always ready to try something new.

Italy - Italian coast (Pisa to Cinque Terre)
Spain - Barcelona, Madrid, Segovia, Granada
Ireland - Dublin
United Kingdom - London
Italy - Rome
Germany - Wuppertal

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in being a traveller, not a tourist. I hope to open my eyes to the many different cultures that make up this world by immersing myself in new experiences and meeting interesting people.
