I am an engineering student from the United States studying abroad in Madrid, Spain. I have a MISSION to see as much as I can in a three week backpacking trip. For me, it is most important to meet amazing people along the way. I am very outgoing and love experiencing new culture and ideas. Every new place is a new adventure with things and people I need to see, to feel and to love. I love exercising, going on random adventures, hiking, bike rides, getting lost, listening to music, and I try to be outside whenever I can. I love pushing my own limits, and people who push me to do so.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I can't think of a better opportunity to meet new people from across the world. I want to learn new culture and see new places. I love traveling and new experiences. I am looking to share time with hosts and learn from them.

Music, Movies, and Books

I thoroughly enjoy history movies and novels. My favorite author is C.S. Lewis.
My love for music spans from Billy Joel to Coldplay to The Stones and everything in-between! I LOVE music. I enjoy creating and performing music. I play saxophone in a wind ensemble and sing in a quartet.
