Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've been on CouchSurfing, but I'm currently traveling through Europe with my fiance Lila and we are trying to broaden our options in searching for accomodations/meeting interesting people along the way!

I am twenty seven year old poet and for now live in New Orleans. I usually work in restaurants but have recently taken an extended amount of time off work to travel. I enjoy music, books, making friends of all kinds, traveling to new places, swimming, hiking, bicycling, and am always open to new experiences!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently traveling through Italy and am seeking more interesting ways of getting acquainted with the cities I'll be visiting!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to forty five of the fifty states in America!

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to play various different instruments, I know a little bit of Spanish, I am learning Italian, I am the editor of a poetry magazine based in New Orleans called 24 Hour Store, I collect records and books, and so on

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am always willing to practice languages wherever I am and am always up for a language exchange. I am good at cooking and am currently looking to learn more about Italian food and would love some opportunites to cook for someone other than my fiance Lila. I am a very easy going and can accliamate to just about anywhere. Anything from helping you in the garden to participating in very long and spontaneous conversations I'd be happy to help!
