Hello! I'm a friendly American from the state of Michigan. I currently live in Nantes, France teaching English in secondary schools. I'm fairly fluent in French but always looking to practice and improve. I'm an open-minded, curious, and caring introvert who enjoys long conversations about life, music, and adventure. I love being outside, exploring, and travel, AND FOOD. And my two dogs back in Michigan <3 I do largely follow a vegan diet, but I love cooking and experimenting with food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
