About Me

I'm a student in New York City, studying political science and Spanish language. I seek to always broaden my world view by engaging with new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't think there's any greater way to familiarize one's self with a new city than to befriend its inhabitants. And while my current dormitory-living does not permit me to actually host, I look forward to returning the favor in the years that come.
