I'm a physical therapy student in central New York, also studying French, living abroad in Aix-en-Provence, France, living in Europe for the first time this semester, trying to explore and learn as much as I can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to stay with locals who can give me a better sense of history and culture in the place that I will be staying, and learn about the best parts of the cities and countries from their points of view.

Interests

Health, fitness and nutrition, yoga and meditation, travel, discovering more about history and about other cultures, getting outdoors and appreciating nature- going for hikes, hanging out by waterfalls or beaches, etc.
