Ciao! I am studying abroad in Florence where I am learning Italian and taking an art history course. I am living with an Italian family and am loving living here!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in traveling in Italy (and maybe even outside the country) and am looking for a place to stay. I am very clean and courteous. I would love to see your town through your eyes!

Interests

Back in California, I'm a physics major and science education minor. I love working with kids on science projects in fun and creative ways. I'm a science teacher over the summer to 6 and 7 year olds.
