I'm Hailey and I am currently studying abroad in Hungary and traveling to as many countries as I'm able to! Im studying International Studies and Environmental studies, so culture and the environment entertains me. I've never traveled before the last couple months, and hope to make the best of the two months I have left!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing because I feel like the experience at staying at someone's home will be much more rewarding than a hostel. Honestly I'm glad to have the option of receiving a free stay, but that in turn means of course I will pitch in for possible joined meals or anything of that relation. I think having the connection with someone more than just a hostel receptionist would be ideal, even if the most we get to do together is exchange many stories and laugh :D The little things really count!

Interests

I love to learn about the history, culture, current politics of the places I visit! I also enjoy experiencing the city a bit more through a locals eyes.. I love food, whether it's local or something delicious that we can cook up together! I'm interested to hear whatever you're passionate about.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give you random facts I know about Sloths, share my knowledge as a first time traveler from the US who's culture shocked from Europe, I can give stories on where I've traveled.. I hope to gain insight on where others have traveled, and to be invested in their stories as much as my own!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A really easy going person who loves to eat food and help out in any way possible! I'm open ears and a fresh perspective.

I don't have a problem spending the days alone if you have work- but I would like to spend time talking in the evening at least!

Happy to accept any tours and advice or tips on food, drinks, and places to see! I'm really open minded and easy-going! Ask me anything!
