I am a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh.
I grew up in the US, but love to travel to different countries. I have been to over 15 different countries (mainly within Europe). Some of my favorite trips so far include going to Cuba and Turkey!
Recently did my first solo trip to Taiwan and Japan. I caught a “travel bug” while I was there, and now I am hoping to move abroad in the next couple years.
Before I do that, I am trying to see more of the US while I can. I figure couchsurfing is a great means to enable me to do so and to let me meet some awesome people along the way! I recently found out about the app and want to get more involved in the community.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with locals and other travelers! I want to hear about the travels others have done and get recommendations on the area in which I am visiting as well. I’m always happy to make new friends :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to learn more about different cultures and travels! Also just happy to talk to people and converse about any topics. I love intellectual conversations and sharing passions, from mindfulness, emerging music, technology, you name it! If you are well-versed in any topic I would love to hear about it :)

What I Can Share with Hosts
