About Me

I just finished an intensive language course in Berlin and now I am traveling a bit before I return to America to study aviation.

I am from the US. Like most people on here, I love traveling and the idea of international hosting but my current living situation doesn't allow me to host others. I haven't interacted much on Couch Surfing before, but I'm hoping to try and become more involved.

I love trying all sorts of new foods. I love to walk around new cities and try to enjoy as much of the culture as possible.
If you want to know more, just message me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be able to meet people from different cultures and backgrounds and broaden my worldview. I also will probably need places to stay if I travel and would like to help out people who are openminded and are also traveling on a budget.

Interests

I enjoy playing football (soccer) , running, traveling, reading, learning new languages, having new experiences with different cultures. I am vegan and am trying to learn how to cook properly.
I would love to learn how to rock climb and kickbox so if anyone could help with that, I would be forever grateful! :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Ed Sheeran, James TW, Passenger, 21 Pilots, the Kooks
Movie: Documentaries!! any and all but particularly Cowspiracy, Blackfish, and More than Honey
Book: The Alchemist, The Kite Runner, Harry Potter Series, Game of Thrones, Pride and Prejudice, Crime and Punishment, The Omnivore's Dilemma
Currently Reading: The Brothers Karamazov and A Storm of Swords
I absolutely love listening to podcasts

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Running on the Great Wall of China with one of my best friends and fellow cross country runner.

Teach, Learn, Share

I really want to learn about other countries, languages, and cultures. I am easily interested and amused :) I can't teach much since I am only 20 and have yet to become master any one subject or field.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am responsible, low maintenance, independent, laid back and easily amused. I can bring a small gift from most recent country visited, and share stories.
I would love to practice my developing vegan cooking skills! So if you're free I can try to prepare you a meal but I can't guarantee anything.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Canada, China, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Guam, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Philippines, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
