I'm an adventurous young traveler who is always willing to step out of my comfort zone! I love meeting new people because that is the best way to learn about new cultures and places. I am fun-loving, humorous, outgoing, and very curious to learn about your own life experiences!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am travelling around Europe this fall (September thru October) to celebrate completing my bachelor's degree. I'll be visiting people in some countries and others I'll be on my own, so it would be great if I could find some welcoming hosts who wouldn't mind showing me around or perhaps accompanying me out for some nightlife fun.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 16 I left my family and home to live in Switzerland for a year. I've had the travel bug ever since!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a bachelor's degree in Environmental Studies & International Affairs with a minor in Food Systems, Sustainability, Health, & Equity. Long degree title, I know.

I love talking about my passion for food and how intricately tied it is to pretty much everything!

I'm learning about social entrepreneurship, what do you know about that??

I just love hearing about people's backgrounds and what drives them in life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love cooking! I am more than happy to cook in exchange for a safe, welcoming place to sleep at night!

Yes, I can make some typical American meals, but I love all kinds of ethnic foods. Recently, I've been cooking a lot of Indian food.
