I go to college in New York but grew up in Massachusetts. I study Social Work and French and spent the past semester studying abroad in Paris. I'm now living just outside of the city and traveling around Europe as much as possible!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love new adventures, whether it's meeting new people or having the opportunity to explore new places. I want to explore new countries by foot, talk to natives, and taste food in order to appreciate and learn from the different cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

I appreciate all types of music, from folk to r&b, jazz to rap. Some random favorites include Frank Ocean, Alabama Shakes, Radiohead, Nora Jones, Chopin, Kendrick Lamar.
I like movies and TV shows but, honestly, don't spend much of my free time watching them. Some favorites include Good Will Hunting, The Shining, The Office (show), Black Mirror (show).
I also like books, but I tend to associate them with school and don't read much for fun. But I'm trying to change that! Some favorites include To Kill a Mockingbird, The BFG, The Help, Great Gatsby.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently walked around the circumference of Paris in an afternoon and unexpectedly made lifelong friends with a Parisian woman.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach/share: laughter, my passion for fighting oppression, music of any sort!

Learn: Anything and everything you have to offer. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm up for any type of conversation, can cook relatively well and have a passion for baking (especially chocolate cake...). I would love to share food and talk.
