I was born and raised just outside of Los Angeles, CA, and I am now studying biochemistry at a liberal arts school in a neighborhood of LA called Eagle Rock. Living in California has given me a strong love for the ocean and desert and a passion for attending live music shows and getting to know the intriguing side of people. I simply love learning new things, whether it fits into the realm of culture, history, art, math, etc., but I have a particular interest in the biological/chemical sciences and hope to pursue a PhD in the field of biochemistry/bioengineering in the near future. I am a pretty easy-going person who loves hearing stories, and have a few of my own to tell, too!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Now that I'm studying abroad in Germany, traveling has become a more frequent pass time of mine; living essentially at the corner between France, Switzerland, and Germany, I've been lucky enough to visit a few of the big European cities. I'm on Couchsurfing because I'd like to have a better chance to meet the locals of the places I'm traveling to and get a true feel for the place; naturally, I'd also like to make new friends from different parts of the world, make some memories with them, and exchange life experiences and personal ideas. I feel that you can always learn something from another person if you spend the time, and Couchsurfing seems to be a good way to do so.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Drove out to Joshua Tree national park to watch a meteor shower with some wonderful friends just for one night (we had to be back for school the next day)

Missed the train out of Paris and spent the whole night out in the city, and had one of those amazing Parisian nights that will always be remembered!
