My name is Cecilia! I'm a 22 year old writer & artist with a degree in Finance & Marketing from Marquette University. I'm originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota and grew up on a small farm. At school, I worked for the radio station as a DJ as well as a music journalist- punk, indie, hiphop, dreampop and chamberpop are my favorite genres. I love traveling like the locals do, attending art shows/gallery events, and biking. Friendly, creative, curious. Let's get to know each other and drink some coffee!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This summer I will be in Germany from mid-July to the first week of August. It's for a class I am attending through my university. I am looking for friends to show me artsy things around the city as well as a couch to crash on at the end of July. Additionally, I will be doing an art project and would love to draw some of the people I meet.
