I'm a student from the US studying International Relations, French, and Arabic. I grew up in a bicultural and bilingual household with my mother being American and my father being German, and therefore really appreciate cultural exchange like this! I really love traveling, meeting people, and saving money while doing so :) (I am a student after all). I like to think of myself as an open minded and adventurous person and am eager to try new hobbies/activities and to experience new things.

This winter, I’m visiting my extended family in Vienna for Christmas and am planning on doing a little traveling on the side. I’d really appreciate any help along the way :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been hearing about it from friends for years, so I figured I'd give it a go! I'm excited to exchange some cultural knowledge and meet some interesting people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just got back from studying abroad in Morocco for the summer. I lived in Fes for 2.5 months and had a wild (and extremely sweaty) time! I also took intensive Arabic classes while I was there which really improved my language skills.

Teach, Learn, Share

One thing that really interests me is language, and I'd love to learn a new language or provide any linguistic knowledge that I might have to any hosts. I also might be able to remember how to knit? Not really sure (haven't tried in years), but we can watch some youtube tutorials together if you're really set on it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Mostly my charming personality I suppose? Although I can absolutely try to cook some food! It will probably be edible?

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Lebanon, Morocco, Switzerland, Uganda
