Hi! I'm a recent college graduate from America who is spending the next 10 months in France as an au pair to travel and learn about myself, as well as the world we live in. I'm really easygoing and very open to different cultures. I am happiest when I am learning or discovering something new. I love going out and having a good time just as much as I love going to a museum or learning the history of a new place. I'm really just trying to see as much as the world as I can while I'm young and I'm ALWAYS up for an adventure. I hope Couchsurfing will be a positive part of my journey!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently an au pair in a suburb of Paris and for the next 10 months (whenever I get the chance) I hope to travel to as many places in France and Europe as I can. I'm hoping Couchsurfing will allow me to see more places and meet some cool people along the way! (And maybe even improve my French?)

Staying with someone who knows the area you're traveling in can change your whole experience of the city. I often travel by myself and couchsurfing has made it easier to meet people and get to know the places I'm traveling in. I hope it will continue to improve my traveling experiences!

I hope one day I will be able to host all my CS friends I've met along the way!

Interests

Traveling, foodie, running, yoga, snowboarding, hiking, camping, kayaking, pretty much anything outdoors, wine & beer enthusiast, music/concerts, reading, practicing my French... I'm always open to trying new things!

I studied Public Health and Global studies in school, so I could talk about that stuff all day! (But won't bore you if you don't want to). I love talking about social justice, feminism, US/world politics, and just having intellectual conversations with open-minded people.
