I'm not in school right now for a family emergency, so I have a lot of free time when I'm in Richmond. Hit me up for bike tours around the city, I bike for UberEats for a living and would love to show you around and get some food :)

I'm a biomedical engineering major and subsequently a huge nerd. I love learning about science, linguistics, philosophy, and religion. My childhood was filled with music and the outdoors, so in my travels I lean towards those kind of activities (#1 favorite being longboarding with some headphones in).

(I used to have an older surfing page but I couldn't figure out the login so here I am :/)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've actually never left the U.S.*, and I'm hoping to use couchsurfing to kickstart my travel plans and meet a ton of new people in the next few years.

*first trip to France very soon :D

Music, Movies, and Books

I have an pretty volatile music taste, but my current favorites include: Hiatus Kaiyote, Ben L'Oncle Soul, Eryn Allen Kane, Magic&Bird, EARTHGANG, Jacob Collier, Lauryn Hill, and OutKast.

I don't watch a lot of TV or movies but instead like to think I can appreciate any genre that is done well

Books: Kite Runner, Seven Years in Tibet, Coraline, The Giver

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn as many languages as possible. Currently, I just speak English and passable Spanish, but I'm hoping to reach my goal of 5+ someday. So, if you speak anything I don't know about please teach me as much as possible, and if you speak Spanish or French please make me practice :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking (to the best of my ~severely lacking~ ability) and cleaning
Thought-provoking conversations :)
Friendship <3
