Hi there!
I am studying to be a German teacher. I cannot wait to finish my degree and work with kids. I am currently in my study abroad program so I can become certified as a German teacher :)

I love to see and experience new things! Nothing is more fun than stepping outside of my comfort zone to try something new. I always try to give everything a chance, I've discovered some of my favorite foods and hobbies that way. If you want to go and grab a drink, I'm your girl. If you want to hang out and chat about life, I'm your girl. I am very social and like to go out and do things, however I do also like to have down time, in which I can relax and chill. Some of my favorite nights have just been hanging out at a friends.

I've also always loved to travel. Ever since I can remember I have loved to fly and see new places. One of my goals once I get back to the US is to visit all 50 states before I turn 50, I mean I have some time :P

I also really like to cook and bake. Along with spread the greatness that is grilled cheese.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently studying abroad and have heard from friends that couch surfing is a great way to meet new people, travel and really get to know the culture of where I am going.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to nearly every type of music, except for country. It really just depends on my mood. Some of my favorites are Halsey, AWOLNATION, The Chainsmokers, Bastille, Run DMC, and Cro.

My favorite movie of all time would have to be How to Train Your Dragon. It might just be the kid in me, but Toothless is amazing. I also like to watch horror movies and comedies. Again, it depends on the day and what I'm doing, just taking a break from homework or hanging out with friends.

I really love to read, but sadly haven't had too much time lately. Harry Potter, Vampire Academy, and the Hunger Games are some of my favorite books. I am currently trying to read some more books in German.
