I'm a 21 year old American college student. I grew up in a tiny town in North Carolina with 4 other siblings and now I'm planning a summer in Europe.

I write and perform poetry and study Comparative Literature and Communication Studies. Basically I write essays about how Nicki Minaj's ass relates to aestheticism, and what Iggy Azalea's popularity says about contemporary black identity.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I'm spending my summer traveling through Europe to research urban spoken word poetry and hip-hop. I want to experience as much as possible! I'm looking for a couch, but if you have experiences to offer, I'd appreciate that as well! What is the essence of the city where you live? Show me around or point me in any direction.
