About Me

I'm a final year BSc Social Sciences student originally from the USA living in London.

Like everyone else, I love travel, good food and great books, music and TV/films. Besides those old standards I love history (especially medieval), archaeology, baking, social justice and cats.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet up with new people and enjoy new cities as well as show visitors around my temporary home of London.
