Hello! I am a clinical psychology PhD student in graduate school right now in New York. I have two Masters degrees and two cats. I love to travel and have not had the chance to enjoy Air BnB before, though I have couch surfed. I am a voracious reader, and mostly read the classics. I just finished Pride and Prejudice and am reading Middlemarch and Tender is the Night at the moment. I do a lot of reading for school though, so I tend to listen to audio books lately. I write a lot for school as well, and am currently working on 5 projects. I have 5 international scientific publications and hope to have a few more by the time I get back to traveling.

In regards to traveling, I like some spontaneity, but I'm also really into planning. I enjoy a luxurious dinner here and there, but can put on a backpack and enjoy the country, too. I like to learn what it's like to live in the places I travel, and am rather adventurous and open minded to trying things the locals like to do and eat. When traveling to Europe, my favorite thing to do and see is ancient ruins. I'm very into classical history, especially Roman and Ancient Greek.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I love to travel! I also have relatively limited funds because I'm still a graduate student. But I love going places and learning what it's like to be someone who lives there. I love having a great drink at a pub and some great conversation!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I'm studying to be a clinical psychologist, so that comes with a whole bunch of interesting things to talk about. My research is on intimate relationships and how our individual personalities affects them. I also read a lot of the classics and know a lot about ancient history.
