Hello! I am a bachelor's student studying Environmental Studies and Political Science at the University of California Santa Barbara in Southern California, USA. Currently, I am studying abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark for exchange until July and am very excited to be in this part of the world learning a lot academically, but personally too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am always excited to meet new people and share stories and memories. It is always so humbling and interesting how people are interconnected and come from all backgrounds and walks of life.

Interests

I am interested in sustainability, renewable energy, and many other environmental related issues, heh. But hobby-wise I enjoy surfing, hiking, reading, cooking, road trips, art museums, scuba diving, and much more!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all sorts of music...just not screamo or metal sorrynotsorry. My favorite artists are Debussy, Jai Wolf, Chainsmokers, Pharrell, Ne-Yo, Robin Thicke, RL Grime, ODESZA, Maroon 5, the list goes on!!! Music is great.
Movies are the best!!!! I like all sorts of movies from comedy, action, and documentaries...but not horror.
Environmental, design, and cooking books are fun reads. I also like classics from Brontë to Dostoevsky.

I can find something entertaining/good in almost anything. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hmmmmmmmmm need to think about this one... overall I feel I have had so many amazing experiences all thanks to kind, generous, beautiful people I have met.

Some highlights off the top my head would be scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef, Red Sea, and Jellyfish Lake. I am also trained as a Climate Reality Leader with Al Gore's Non-Profit Organization called Climate Reality.

Teach, Learn, Share

Constantly learning things every day, but I might have some expertise in some areas that you may seek!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share good conversation and make decent food with most things I can find in the house! But, with a trip to the grocery store, I can whip up a delicious meal.

I am also happy to walk your dog!!!!! (If you have one.)

Also, I can try to share my experiences traveling in other countries such as best sites to see (that I found memorable at least!) and how to get there, where to stay, what to eat, etc.
