About Me

Hi! I'm currently a student at Vassar College studying Africana Studies and Film. I am very passionate about my studies, but am also committed to visual art (I draw every day), novel reading, and music playing/listening. Any and all of these things I am always more than thrilled to have conversations about! Although a fair warning, if you get my started on film or politics the conversation may not end until the following day haha. Most importantly, I love meeting new people and learning new things from them, so hopefully that is exactly where couchsurfing will lead me.

I have been traveling in France for the last month, and will soon be in Toulouse for a few nights, where I'm hoping to meet up with a friendly couchsurfer host!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to see and hear the "real" places and experiences of locals, and couchsurfing seems like the perfect way to do so. I don't think that there's any better way to experience a city or town than to tag along with one knowledgeable person on their daily escapades.
