I am a 21 year old student from Washington, D.C. that goes to school in Austin, Texas. I have a Psychology major and a Spanish minor. I plan to graduate a semester early this fall and then work and travel for 8 months before grad school. I am a dual citizen, Australian/American, who was born of a family of avid travelers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently doing summer school in Madrid but have three weeks of free time before I go back to the States in July. I am hoping to see as much of Europe as possible while I am still here, but it is not always easy to do on a student income, especially during peak travel time.

Music, Movies, and Books

People usually say that they can listen to any music but that usually comes with fine print. I really enjoy listening to all types of music however one of my favorite artists is definitely Billy Joel. My father raised me to appreciate Classic American Rock, however as a millennial I listen to anything that is playing.

Horror movies and paranormal movies are my favorite because I love the adrenaline rush

My all time favorite book is "Mans Search for Meaning" by Viktor Frankl

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hard to think of just one- I've been cage diving with sharks, been kicked in the stomach by a kangaroo, hiked the tallest mountain in Texas, paraglided off of Table Mountain.. as you can tell I am always ready for adventure

What I Can Share with Hosts

An open mind and ears willing to listen to any advice for a solo traveling young adult. Life lessons welcome!
Enjoy a good beer or glass of wine and getting to know the people I am around, however can be very independent and solitary when need be.
