I am a student right now and I still have a few more years until I will graduate. I love to be outside and slow down my busy life to appreciate everything around me. I love cooking, but more importantly I love to eat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this is best way to really get to know a country, to stay with locals who want to show people their home. The best travel experiences I have are when I talk to locals and they show me where to go. It doesn't seem fair to the country if we only go to tourist places.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love the Weeknd, Hozier, and Saint Motel. My favorite TV show is The Office

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I volunteered in China to help kids with congenital heart disease and that was the first time I had ever traveled by myself. It put so many things in perspective to me that I want to travel to as many countries as I possibly can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have an extremely open mind and if I visit a country, I want to learn as much about it as I can. I think sometimes just sitting down and having a conversation with someone new is what we all need in our busy lives.
