I'm Athena! It's so difficult to sum myself up in a short paragraph. Best way to find out what you want to know is to ask!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After a long, gray year in London for an MSc, I'm backpacking through Europe for a month until I have to face reality, which for me is starting work back home in the US. I'm excited for my job but part of me will always miss the time I've spent over here!

Hiking

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movie of all time is The Princess Bride. Best friends are made when quoting that movie.

I'm open to all types of music! Good music is never limited to specific genres.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: lots of fun facts about ice cream 🍦

Learn: I love to learn new languages, even just a few words or phrases to get around. There's so much else I want to learn but I'll need a lot more time to spend on it!

Share: I can make you true American pancakes while exchanging travel stories!
